Thanks,
That's a very good starting point. The one thing that I'm unsure of is how
to keep "products/list" different between the main site and the admin area.
For example, /products/list should show a different page than
/admin/products/list. Using your route, both /products/list and
/admin/products/list show the same page.
I was thinking that I'll need two products controllers. (maybe name one
"AdminProductsController"?) Is that still done through the router?
Thanks for your help!!
