by the way /controller/action/id is call REST, at least the first part
(not the syntax formatting) here on the list we have several people
posting their own and there is one in CP's trac too.
although for now the current suggesting works like a charm.

I'm still laughing, thanks I needed that :) I guess your missing the
part when the stick demanded you used indian1.x but you wanted to use
an indian2.x, but then the indian 2.x refused to work with the

oh come on that's just rude "that other place" is reserved to the only
language that has managed to make the most complicated way to generate
HTML, so complex that it demanded it's own flavor of apache, a huge
