well there is a couple of things, first there was a change in CP3[1] so this will work until 1.1 which is the plan. in CP there is a "dispatcher" object that is what takes care of ... yes dispatching, but that is the one that actually implemented the "default method"[2] by the way did you saw http://www.cherrypy.org/wiki/RestfulResource ? [1] http://www.cherrypy.org/wiki/WhatsNewIn30#Dispatch [2] http://www.cherrypy.org/browser/trunk/cherrypy/_cpdispatch.py#L50 I have read ur blog entry from Karl's post... and I was wondering are you in the planet? http://planet.turbogears.org/ send Lee a link if you want to be hook on :) -Sw. > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
