I have done something to my application controller so that instead of the redirected page itself am now seeing this as a response: <html><body>You are being <a href="http://www.example.com/ welcome">redirected</a>.</body></html> I do not know why this is happening or what I did to trigger this behaviour. The API does not give me any clues as to what is going on. The redirect command involved is: redirect_back_or_default(welcome_path) def redirect_back_or_default(default) redirect_to(session[:return_to] || default) session[:return_to] = nil end Up to today this has simply displayed the target page. I have no idea how or why the intermediate redirect page is generated. I would be very grateful if anyone can enlighten me on this matter. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
