Sounds like you want to add this as a parameter to the action, for example game_pick_page_path(:test => 1) which will cause params[:test] to be set to 1. If you want to remember the value without storing it in the database, use the session (set session[:foo]) rather than a global - a global would share its value across all users of the site and won't work consistently if you have more than 1 passenger/unicorns instance Fred > > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
