To me, I look at the url "recipes/beef-brisket", and I assume I am in the part of the website which lists _recipes_, and that I am looking at one particular recipe, the one for beef-brisket. That seems perfectly natural, even without familiarity with rails conventions. I can understand having preferences, but I'm not certain I see the worth in fighting all the Rails conventions; if I were to switch to django or to cake-php or (something else), I'd think it would make more sense for me to adopt the conventions of those frameworks than to make my life more difficult by spending half my time working around the default assumptions... But that's just me. :-) > > > -- > > Kevin > http://www.RawFedDogs.net > http://www.WacoAgilityGroup.org > Bruceville, TX > > What's the definition of a legacy system?
