Hello is there any way to pass paramters in a more proper way than I do currently? Since it''s the easiest way I''m just passing them as GET parameters at the moment for example: http://localhost:3000/actions/980190963/add_date?t=2010-02-23 http://localhost:3000/actions/new?at=678542324&t=851829735&tt=Type1 I really don''t like that way of passing parameters and doesn''t look very rails-like. So solution I can think of so far is to turn all of these links into forms with hidden tags but I don''t really like that either even though I think it''s better than now. Anyone knowing a better solution to this? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Even if you use hidden fields the url will still look as in your examples. Or are you actually talking about what the code in your view looks like. If so then, for example, you can just add the parameters in link_to, so for example: link_to ''Some Text'', :controller => ''some_controller'', :action => ''some_action'', :t => ''2010-02-23'', tt => ''Type1'' Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

> Sorry if didn''t make myself clear. I just wanna get rid of the > parameters in the URL and pass them so they''re not in the URL.That requires a POST request. If you want an URL that looks something like "actions/new/678542324/851829735/Type1", then you could define a custom route like "map.connect '':controller/:action/:id/:at/:t/:tt''", which would enable you to add more parameters without labeling them in the url itself, but I am not sure how well that works with restful resources. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thanks for the advice. Thought of it as well but isn''t there an unwritten rule of not nesting routes too deep and stuff like that? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It''s just mapping a URL with with some parameters. If you have not read this guide I''d suggest doing so.

Thanks, I read it. Makes sense :)
Still having some trouble, routes.db:
map.connect '':controller/:id/:action/:action_id''
In the html file:
link_to atp.name, {:controller => ''activities'', :id =>
@activity,
:action => ''select_characters'', :action_id => atp.id }
nor
select_characters_activity_path(@activity, {:action_id => atp.id})
works. It still creates:
http://localhost:3000/activities/980190963/select_characters?action_id=291929305
URLs.
Anyone knows why? Seems fine too me.

Sorry - missed the original post.
You want to POST a parameter instead of using GET? From where?
A controller?
post { :some_action, {:login => "bob", :password =>
"jones" }
From a view - just do a normal form, it defaults to post

No, I just want to change these URLs:
http://localhost:3000/actions/980190963/add_date?t=2010-02-23
http://localhost:3000/actions/new?at=678542324&t=851829735&ttinto:
http://localhost:3000/actions/980190963/add_date/2010-02-23
http://localhost:3000/actions/new/678542324/851829735
for better readability.
I tried it with:
map.connect '':controller/:id/:action/:action_id''
link_to atp.name, {:controller => ''activities'', :id
=> @activity,
:action => ''select_characters'', :action_id => atp.id }
or
select_characters_activity_path(@activity, {:action_id => atp.id})
but I only get:
http://localhost:3000/activities/980190963/select_characters?action_id=291929305
So my question was how to create this kind of link:
http://localhost:3000/actions/980190963/add_date/2010-02-23

I tried map.connect ''/actions/:action_id/add_date/:date'', :controller => ''actions'', action => ''add_date'' instead of map.connect '':controller/:id/:action/:action_id'' but that didn''t work cause that''s not what''s not working.
