Given this route:
map.connect
'':controller/:action/:object_name/:mailing/:check_state'',
:defaults => {:mailing => ''0'', :check_state =>
''0''}
and the URL spec. here (embedded in a call to remote_function):
:url => {:action => ''lookup_city_and_state'',
:object_name => ''insured'',
:mailing => mailing ? ''1'' : ''0'',
:check_state => check_state ? ''1'' :
''0''}
why do I end up with this generated URL (''artisan_qualifiers''
is the
name of my controller):
/artisan_qualifiers/lookup_city_and_state/insured/1
?
I would expect another / and a value for check_state.
Thanks,
Wes

OK, it seems like if I remove the :defaults part of my route, then it works. Did :check_state get _completely_ ignored because the value for :mailing didn''t match the default value for :mailing? I won''t use :defaults ''til I understand this.

I''d guess that mailing => 1 and check_state => 0, and since that is the default, Rails left it off since it''s not necessary. Be interesting to see the output of: :url => {:action => ''lookup_city_and_state'', :object_name => ''insured'', :mailing => ''0'', :check_state => ''1''} and see if you get this: /artisan_qualifiers/lookup_city_and_state/insured/0/1 -philip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Philip, This is something that I didn''t understand about routes. So if a value matches the default, it won''t be represented in the URL but the param will still get that value when the controller action is started, is that correct?

If I do what I said above, then the URL is generated as stated, but then in the action, params[:mailing] is nil!

Alright - fuller disclosure - this is an AJAX call where I''m setting a
query string as well.
It''s a simple ZIP code lookup action. I''m setting the params
that I
know about up front as part of the URL and using the route to get those.
However, for the ZIP code, which comes from the form, I''m setting that
on the query string.
Given the route above, and this call (the object_name variable has a
value of ''insured'', the check_state variable has a value of
''0'')
<%= text_field(object_name.to_sym,
"#{attr_prefix}zip_code".to_sym,
:size => 10,
:maxlength => 10,
:onblur => remote_function(:url => {:action =>
''lookup_city_and_state'',
:object_name => object_name,
:mailing => mailing ?
''1'' :
''0'',
:check_state => check_state},
:with => "''zip='' +
encodeURIComponent(this.value)",
:before => ''ajax_running = true; ajax_issues =
false'',
:complete => ''ajax_running = false;''))
%>
Seems like in this case - where mailing is ''1'', check_state is
''0'', that
the URL comes out as expected, but params[:object_name],
params[:mailing], params[:check_state] all come in as nil.
My guess is that the presence of the query string parameter screws
things up if the URL isn''t completely specified (which seems to happen
based on the defaulting rule).
Weird. It''s not like the parameters in the URL and the parameters
spec''d in the AJAX call _can''t_ coexist (they can if I
don''t use
defaults on the route).
Well, I''m back to not defaulting for this guy.
Thanks,
Wes

Take a look at my last post - do I need to do something in the route specification in order to allow for query string parameters?
