Hi all, I''m looking for a way to do the reverse of what the named route helpers do. Namely: Given routes: map.foo ''/foo/:id'', :controller => ''foo'', :action => ''show'' map.bar ''/bar/:id'', :controller => ''bar'', :action => ''show'' Given urls: /foo/1 /bar/1 I''d like to be able to do something like this in my layout: if requested_foo_path # ... show something specific to foo elsif requested_bar_path # ... show something specific to bar end There''s probably a better way to do this, but I''m new to rails so any help appreciated.

Playing around I came up with this solution for now: map.foo ''/foo/:id'', :controller => ''foo'', :action => ''show'', :showing_foo => true map.bar ''/bar/:id'', :controller => ''bar'', :action => ''show'', :showing_bar => true if params[:showing_foo] # ... show something specific to foo elsif params[:showing_bar] # ... show something specific to bar else # ... show something generic end I''d still like to know if there is a better way though. If anyone has any info I''d appreciate learning the "Rails Way" to solve this problem, if that is not it.

So you can do: if controller.controller_name == ''foo'' # ... show something specific to foo elsif controller.controller_name == ''bar'' # ... show something specific to bar end If you want to make the code specific to both controller and action you can do: if controller.controller_name == ''foo'' && controller.action_name =''show'' HTH, Bill --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I actually knew about that and wrote a similar capability for some ASP work I do at work in my day job. Argh. Can''t believe I didn''t think of that this time. Goes to show what happens when most of your hobby coding is between 10pm and 1am... Thanks again, worked perfectly! -dave -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Alternatively, you can just use the current_page? method: if current_page? foo_url #do some ish elsif current_page? bar_url # other stuff...

One final thing - you can also pass extra params in :requirements -
thus:
map.resource :foos, :requirements => { :extra => ''foo'' }
will add :extra => ''foo'' to the incoming params.
I''m not 100% sure if
this works on map.connect style routes, but if it doesn''t,
it''s
probably a bug.
