While on that question...

Yep, that''s what ||= means... and yes it is very difficult to search the web for symbolic stuff like that. If you have the Agile Rails book in pdf form however, you can search for that expression sucessfully. b mixplate wrote:> > is that saying > > if params[:some_data] contains something not equal to nil, continue to > the next line of code...else make params[:some_data] into an empty > array? > > > i tried searching for ||= but no luck. > > > thanks for any help! >--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

One step beyond'' tressle''.
A wiki with the syntax can be
/web/topic
No "controller", no "action".
Defaults to "show"
I would think that is what most users might expect.
Only when you need to edit
/web/topic?edit
Some wiki have a topic that is the index page, like TWiki,
so
/web/index
is a case of
/web/topic
and not
/web action => ''index''
Which means you can write different styles of index pages - not need to hack
the code. isn''t that what a wiki is about?

Re: params[:some_data] ||= [] #what does that mean?
