react router - Don't render any view by default - reactjs -

i have container div static html. don't want react router if default location /. expects default view don't have. there easy solution.

i tried doesn't work back/forward browser button?

var initapp = function() {      router.run(routes,  function(handler) {           if(router.hashlocation.getcurrentpath() !== '/') {            react.render(<handler/>, document.getelementbyid('top-container'));           }        }); } 

seems hacky suggest - have tried passing mocked component (not inheriting react.component) no-op render: function() {}? otherwise, think react replace wrapper's innerhtml.

on other hand - rendering server-side? if so, output of "dumb" component handler '/' prints same markup container holds, quite literally static html anyway, despite being rendered react.
