Rails - Aug 2007 - what is the difference between new_article_path vs. new_article_url?

hi all,

i''ve recently begun using RESTful routing techniques in my RoR app.
as i''m using it, though, i find that i use the _path and the _url
methods interchangebly.  what''s the difference between these types of
methods?  thanks!

_path will use the relative path notation, while _url will give you  
the full url. I believe it''s best practise to only use _url for  
redirects.
