thanks for your replies, I want to execute the new action as well as render the corresponding view, without changing the url. It is a case of dynamic routing.
Following is the scenario: Every user can have their profile on the website, whose url is www.xyz.com/profileid Additionally there would be an option for the user to add a domain to point to their profile. So for example, my profile on the website is www.xyz.com/pankaj If I own a domain www.pankaj.com, and point it to www.xyz.com, then www.pankaj.com should take me to the page www.xyz.com/pankaj without changing the url. In the before filter function, I check if the url is not xyz.com, then it is mapped to the corresponding user, and then I need to go to the corresponding controller and action.
