I understand the idea of having apache serving static content but
anyways what do you think about this as i am with similar question in
mind.
#controller
class HomeController < ApplicationController
def index
page = params['page']
if page
begin
# page var is the same as the name of my "page.html.erb" as in
about.html.erb to process a param with value about etc..
render "page_views/" + page
rescue ActionView::MissingTemplate
render "errors/404.html", :status=> 404
end
end
end
end
#end of class
#router as the last 2 lines after all options have been excluded
match '/:page' => 'home#index' , :as=> :page
root :to => "home#index"
Would this be good practice?
Might be raw but it does the job for my needs.
What you think folks
