Rails - Dec 2005 - Fromcontroller to the url_for() representation

Hi,

I''m trying to generate the url_for parameters ina controller to pass
down to a view. And I want to pass in the link_to() params. One of the
things I need to pass is the :controller part.

So I''m in the controller itself, and I want to change the self.class
(or it''s to_s represantation) to the format needed by link_to().

For example:

class MyController < ApplicationController
  def show_something
    the_controller = self.class # or self.class.to_s
    # here I want somethig like:
    @controller_to_use = transform_to_string(the_controller)
  end
end

Also, is there a way to call link_to() in a controller?

Thanks,

Guy.
