Rails - Jul 2006 - can''t use symbols in redirect_to?

when i use something like:

  redirect_to :controller => :login, :action => :login

i get an error:
"undefined method `include?'' for :login:Symbol"

is it not possible to use symbols with redirect_to?  i thought it was
a rails idiom to use symbols like so.

thanks,
jeff

You can''t use a symbol for just the controller name. They work for the 
other params. I don''t know why this is - anybody know?

yeah, i''m a bit confused as to why it''s ok to use symbols in
the other
methods but not this one.  the inconsistency isn''t very rails...
