you shouldn't bother doing this by yourself. there are a few good solutions
for mootools. my biased opinion would obviously send you to my own
HistoryManager <http://mootools.net/forge/p/historymanager> on the Forge,
but there is also digitarald's (also history-mangaer - google it) and there
is also a very nice onhashchange implementation by Sanford (i think). if you
look back a week or so on the list i think you'll find a message listing
them all.
