Description

If you link to flow try with an invalid URL (eg. when something has chopped the end off) it ignores the URL input.

eg: https://flowtype.org/try/#lfhgfjdsklaskfjhskjfkhbjdslfhbdlsfhdifugjbvsnkshegf

This is especially confusing because it will then load whatever you last had open from a previous session.

It would be good to at least provide a message to the visitor that the URL could not be loaded.
