				var page = $(this).attr('href');
               var sp = $("#sp").val();
 var mo = $("#mo").val();

You could use JavaScript to save a flag value in localStorage then, if the value exists you can set the div properly.
See the localStorage api at: Window.localStorage - Web APIs | MDN[^]

JavaScript

localStorage.setItem("makeDiv1st","my-divId");

Then next time page loads you check the value:

JavaScript

let targetDivId = localStorage.getItem("makeDiv1st");

This should all probably be done without the page refresh but this is one workaround that may work for you.
