The method used for all previous answers to this question suggest changing the url which is not necessary, and I think readers should be aware of an alternative solution. I use ui-router and $stateProvider to associate a state value with a templateUrl which points to the html file for your view. Then it is just a matter of injecting the $state into your controller and calling $state.go('state-value') to update your view.

What is the difference between angular-route and angular-ui-router?

This little function has served me well         goto view        useage -   scope gotoView  your path here   boolean open in new window       scope gotoView   function  st view  is newWindow                 console log  going to view             st view   window location           if  is newWindow                         window open  window location origin    window location pathname               st view    blank                      else                        window location hash          st view                       You dont need the full path  just the view you are switching to

Without doing a full revamp of the default routing    ViewName  environment  I was able to do a slight modification of Cody s tip and got it working great   the controller   controller  GeneralCtrl      route     routeParams     location           function  route   routeParams   location                                this goToView   function viewName                    location url       viewName                                     the view       lt li ng-click  general goToView  Home    gt HOME lt  li gt        What brought me to this solution was when I was attempting to integrate a Kendo Mobile UI widget into an angular environment I was losing the context of my controller and the behavior of the regular anchor tag was also being hijacked  I re-established my context from within the Kendo widget and needed to use a method to navigate   this worked   Thanks for the previous posts

There are two ways for this   If you are using ui-router or  stateProvider  do it as    state go  stateName      remember to add  state service in the controller   if you are using angular-router or  routeProvider  do it as    location path  routeName      similarily include  location service in your controller

In order to switch between different views  you could directly change the window location  using the  location service   in index html file   lt div ng-controller  Cntrl  gt           lt div ng-click  changeView  edit    gt              edit          lt  div gt           lt div ng-click  changeView  preview    gt              preview          lt  div gt   lt  div gt    Controller js  function Cntrl   scope  location             scope changeView   function view                location path view      path not hash                   and configure the router to switch to different partials based on the location   as shown here https   github com angular angular-seed blob master app app js    This would have the benefit of history as well as using ng-view    Alternatively  you use ng-include with different partials and then use a ng-switch as shown in here   https   github com ganarajpr Angular-UI-Components blob master index html

The provided answer is absolutely correct  but I wanted to expand for any future visitors who may want to do it a bit more dynamically -   In the view -    lt div ng-repeat  person in persons  gt       lt div ng-click  changeView person   gt          Go to edit      lt div gt   lt div gt    In the controller -    scope changeView   function person       var earl     editperson     person id       location path earl       Same basic concept as the accepted answer  just adding some dynamic content to it to improve a bit   If the accepted answer wants to add this I will delete my answer
