Rails - May 2006 - Can I send rendered .html to somewhere besides the web server?

Is there any way to tell Rails to send the .html file it renders somewhere other
than the web server?  I need to save a page to the server''s file system
instead of sending it to the user''s browser.

Thanks!
Bill

Hi Bill,

This is from a recent post to this list:

@render = render :action => controller.action_name
outf = File.open(Time.now + ".html","w")
outf.puts @render
outf.close

I guess after that you can do whatever you want with outf ..

cheers
Martin
