AngularJS not able to route to different page

Question

I have a simple web project that has a phone list and each element in that list contains a phone detail information. If I clicked on a phone id, it should bring me to a page for that phone only, however, nothing happened after a phone id was clicked.

When the app was loaded, it went to the index page with a url:

http://localhost:8080/angular-route-multiple-views/index.html#!/phones

After I clicked on the first phone id, the url was changed to the following but it didn't go to that page at all:

http://localhost:8080/angular-route-multiple-views/index.html#!/phones#%2Fphones%2Fnexus

Can someone please help and let me know why it didn't go to the phone detail page ? Thanks.

Have you tried to change href to ng-href? <a ng-href="#/phones/{{phone.id}}">{{phone.name}}</a> — The.Bear

Your forgot to add ! in the href attribute.

<ul>
    <li ng-repeat="phone in $ctrl.phones">
        <a href="#!/phones/{{phone.id}}">{{phone.name}}</a>
        <p>{{phone.snippet}}</p>
    </li>
</ul>
