Angular Route Infinite Loop - angularjs

Question

For some reason when I have a dynamic property in my route and access that page I get stuck in an infinite loop where that page will continuously request itself.
.config(["$routeProvider", "$locationProvider", function($routeProvider, $locationProvider)
{
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
$routeProvider.when("/", {
templateUrl: "pages/index.html",
controller: "IndexCtrl"
}).when("/listhome", {
templateUrl: "pages/listhome.html",
controller: "ListHomeCtrl"
}).when("/profile", {
templateUrl: "pages/profile.html",
controller: "ProfileCtrl"
}).when("/newlist", {
templateUrl: "pages/newlist.html",
controller: "NewListCtrl"
}).when("/userlists/:id", {
templateUrl: "pages/userlists.html",
controller: "UserListsCtrl"
}).otherwise({
redirectTo: "/"
});
The route I'm looking at is the /userlists/:id route. The controller for that route is-
TopTenApp.controller("UserListsCtrl", ["$scope","$routeParams", function($scope, $routeParams)
{
console.log($routeParams);
$scope.lists = [];
}]);
And when I access /userlists/9 I see-
Object {id: "9"}
Being logged every 3 seconds and the page freezes. This seems to happen whenever there is a forward slash after the location ("/userslists/" instead of "/userlists").
Does anyone know the cause of this?

Silly me I realized the problem. I guess it makes sense but the template url needs to have a forward slash in front of it when the page is multiple "directories" deep.
.config(["$routeProvider", "$locationProvider", function($routeProvider, $locationProvider)
{
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
$routeProvider.when("/", {
templateUrl: "/pages/index.html",
controller: "IndexCtrl"
}).when("/listhome", {
templateUrl: "/pages/listhome.html",
controller: "ListHomeCtrl"
}).when("/profile", {
templateUrl: "/pages/profile.html",
controller: "ProfileCtrl"
}).when("/newlist", {
templateUrl: "/pages/newlist.html",
controller: "NewListCtrl"
}).when("/userlists/:id", {
templateUrl: "/pages/userlists.html",
controller: "UserListsCtrl"
}).otherwise({
redirectTo: "/"
});
}]);
Hopefully that helps someone else with a similar problem.
