Hi everybody, after playing around with routes.py for a while I wonder if what I want to do is possible at all. I want to rewrite the URLs shown to the visitor after clicking a menu link in the following way:
Lets say I built a site that deals with colors. My menu shows base color links like red, green, blue on the top level and variations of the the base colors on the next menu level. My app would be named "color_book" my controller "colors" and the the function showing the pages "show_color_page". After clicking the submenu item "light-blue" under the parent menu-item "blue" I would normally see an URL in the browser like: http://my.domain.com/color_book/colors/show_color_page/light-blue But I want to rewrite the URL to: http://my.domain.com/blue/light-blue Accordingly a page with the menu location "red > dark-red" should be presented with: http://my.domain.com/red/light-red I thought that a pattern-based routes.py could be configured to do things like that. But I've only had success with rewriting URLs manually entered in the browser's address field so far- but not with internal links. Is there an example for my use case somewhere?
