I know this isn''t all that Rails friendly but is it possible to do catch-all routing so that some value can be passed in as if it were a controller for example http://localhost:3000/ford/thunderbird http://localhost:3000/gm/solstice I know you can do it like this http://localhost:3000/manufacturers/ford/thunderbird http://localhost:3000/manufacturers/gm/solstice but is it possible to skip the controller name? TIA.

Andrew, Sorry I should have mentioned that I won''t know the manufacturer names ahead of time (in other words, I want to make it data driven). That''s what I meant by catch-all.

map.static '':permalink'', :controller =>
''pages'', :action => ''show''
or
map.connect "*path", :controller => "four_oh_fours"
First on is not great and you need to handle 404s in that
controller... the second is well an example from a 404 controller BUT
it shows the *path example... if you do /bla1/bla2/bla3 that''s what
you get in the params...
Parameters: {"action"=>"index",
"controller"=>"four_oh_fours",
"path"=>["bla1", "bla2", "bla3"]}
