Here is the > example I am trying to deal with: You've got it backwards. In your example the `list', `template' and `view' actions all map to `/templates'. You should have something like: package MyApp::Controller::Templates; sub template :Chained('/') :PathPart('') :CaptureArgs(1) {...} sub list :Chained('template') :Args(0) {...} sub view :Chained('template') :Args(0) {...} See http://search.cpan.org/~mramberg/Catalyst-Runtime-5.7001/lib/Catalyst/Dispat chType/Chained.pm#Introduction for a good example. > *snip* > Basically I'd like to replace the hardcoded path in the > redirect("/templates") since I am not too sure where this app > will eventually sit in the web hierarchy.

The uri_for method should prepend the URI with your app's base URL and the path to the controller, so that should be all you need. > --john > > > > _______________________________________________ > List: [email protected] > Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst > Searchable archive: > http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ > Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
