Tim,
You might consider a common view with two different partials - one for
each case.
routes.rb:
map.index '/',
:controller => 'pages',
:action => 'welcome',
:id => '1-welcome-page'
controllers/pages_controller.rb:
def welcome
@page = Page.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
format.html # welcome.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => @page }
end
end
views/pages/welcome.html.erb
<p>
<b>Title:</b>
<%=h @page.title %>
</p>
<% if logged_in? %>
<%= render :partial => 'layouts/welcome_back' %>
<% else %>
<%= render :partial => 'layouts/please_login' %>
<% end %>
