Rails - Jan 2006 - Simple print statement (was: recongizing the current controller in views)

All (and kevin),

After flying high for a while on Rails things, I''m down to the nitty
gritty of
Ruby stuff. Messing with vars and printing them out on a web page.

I found the controller_path in the API docs;

However when putting this in a controller:

@test1 = controller_class_name
@test2 = controller_name
@test3 = controller_path

And this in a partial:

Test1 <%= @test1 %><br/>
Test2 <%= @test2 %><br/>
Test3 <%= @test3 %><br/>

I get this in my browser:

Test1 MainController
Test2 main

On the third one I get a: undefined local variable or method
`controller_path''

Is there a difference with the 1st and 2nd? Is this a faulty application to do 
so?

Thanx!

Gerard.
