title: working with '#!' in a ajax function url
body: <p>ok I have created the below ajax request and I am having trouble passing the '#!' characters to the browser from the response created by the function. When I view the console in the web browser the '#!' characters are completely removed from the url. Is it possible to keep these characters in the url? </p>
  
  <p>Code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(function() {
  function loadStats() {
  
    $.ajax({
      url: 'http://stats.nba.com/players/gamelogs/'+decodeURIComponent('#!')+'?&amp;callback=?',
      jsonpCallback: 'jsonReturnData',
      dataType: 'jsonp',
      data: {
        CF: 'PLAYER_NAME*E*James Harden',
        Season: '2016-17',
        SeasonType: 'Regular Season',
        format: 'json'
      },
  
      success: function(response) {
        console.log(response);
  
      } //success
  
    }); //AJAX Call
  } //load Chart
  
  loadStats();
  
  });
  </code></pre>
