JavaScript: catching URI change

Question

I have a site where I'm using hash based parameters, eg.

http://url.of.site/#param1=123

What I want

When the user manually changes the URI to eg.

http://url.of.site/#param1=789

When the user enters this URI, the event is caught by the JavaScript, and the appropriate functions are called. Basically, what I'm wondering about is; is there an event listener for this? Or would I have to periodically check the URI to see if it has been changed?

I'm already using the current jQuery API, if that helps.
