[Rails] Re: Redirecting to another controller, with a POST method

Hi MaD,- yep, I can see your line of reasoning. It appears that it is probably not very RESTful to check for POST, so that can be dropped altogether. It seems conceptually wrong that you need to ensure something is POST'ed, but then it only works from a view and not a controller. If something
