//Best is Homero Barbosa's answer below:
history.pushState('', document.title, window.location.pathname);
//... or, if you want to maintain the search parameters:
history.pushState('', document.title, window.location.pathname + window.location.search);
//Old, do not use, badwrongfun:
// var loc = window.location.href,
// index = loc.indexOf('#');
// if (index > 0) {
// window.location = loc.substring(0, index);
// }
//that refreshes the page for you which seems a trifle rude after
//just arriving there. Grin and bear it seems to be the best option.
