Can a route require POST or GET? / REST problem with routing
Hi, A store front a customer wants to GET /product/5/show. But for the application this is really GET /cart_item/new/5 or even better /cart_item/new?cart_item[product_id]=5 When the customer clicks add_to_cart they POST /product/5/show so that the url doesn''t confuse the user when any validation errors occur. But for the applicaiton this should be POST

If a person has a bookmark to an old web page I would like them to be directed to the front page of the new website www.domain.com. How do I do this? Do I do something in routes.rb? Thanks, Peter

_marker in dragdrop.js
Hi, I''ve been confused about the purpose of _marker in dragdrop.js for quite a while. It doesn''t really look like it does anything with ghosting on or off. I removed the mark method and didn''t discover any problems. Is all the mark business a relic from some past idea? Thanks, Peter

ActiveSupport JSON working?
Hi, I am trying to convert a hash to JSON using ActiveSupports built in .to_json. I am doing similar to the example below but are there certain strings that could go in place of ''bar'' or ''rez'' that will break the to_json method? I am using a very long string from rjs output in place of ''bar''. Perhaps .to_json is not ready yet? Thanks, Peter

model helper location
Hi, I''m looking at the rails cookbook for uploading files[1]. At the bottom of the page it says that the sanitize_filename functioin would probably go in a helper or a library. I wonder where these files would be or what they would be called. Pehaps there are some conventions I need to know about? Thanks, Peter [1] http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/chapter/78

Documentation for scaffold / views
Apparently a scaffold creates at least one instance variable for views to use, and if I override the scaffold then I must also explicitly create that instance variable for the view. I''d like to know exactly what work is performed by the scaffold so that I can know this when over-riding the view. (OR, is it that the controller makes these variables available by default?..) EXAMPLE:

Accessing the controller name in your views?
I need to know what controller and action the user is currently in to do various things in my layouts/application.rhtml file. Isn''t there is a better way than: <% if params[:controller] == "whatever" && params[:action] == "whatever" %>some html<% end %> I know in the controllers you can just use controller_name, but that is not provided
