Great, Thanks! I'll try that tonight.
Is there any documentation on what is going on under the hood for the
global response object in the controller? I'd like to get a better
sense of how I would:
* add header mime-type information
* use other commands like abort()
Also are other people using AuthKit or is it sort of an outdated
concept? The feature set looks great, but thinking I'd want some
abstraction to simplify it a bit for my app. If it is not the
"standard" way to go I'll write custom...
Thanks again,
