[fw-general] Route issue

[Tomek Klas]

Hi,

while porting our app to zend framework, I have stumbled across a  
problem

I need to map:

http://localhost/en/review/die_hard/1/xyz/abc/321

en stands for language, and 1 for page number, other bold values are  
optional.

so far, I am using

$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex(
    '(.*)/review/(.*)/(.*)/*',
    array(
        'module'                =>   'public',
        'controller'    =>   'Reviews',
        'action'                =>   'review'
    ),
    array(
        'language'      =>   1,
        'title'                 =>   2,
        'page'          =>   3
    )
);

which works fine as long as the exact rule is matched, but fails if I  
don't put the page number in. is there a way of specifying default  
values for the parameters specified in bold (1/xyz/abc/321) or make  
them optional in one rule ?

I don't really want to write this same route for every permutation...


any ideas?
