You can't, once it gets to rails it is too late. Rails cannot access random locations on your server (nor would you wish it to). If you want to serve up stuff from somewhere such as /documentation then you would have to setup your web server appropriately so that it handles it before it gets to Rails. Not that you would want your web server picking up stuff from /documentation either. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
