      I am trying to understand why a website would use # instead of a ? for its parameters? I have put an example of the URL below:

      http://www.warehousestationery.co.nz/office-supplies/adhesives-tapes-and-fastenings#prefn1=brand&prefn2=colour&prefv1=Command&prefv2=Clear

      Any help would be much appreciated.
