Ruby Forum Rails France > if ".com" becomes part of the URL, Routing error is flashed

Hi,

I am trying to list companies in a catalog. I have set following route
for that

map.connect 'company/:company'
            :controller => 'community',
      :action => 'search'

Now I have ".com" as a part of the company name(Amazon.com), then my app
flags out an error stating:
no route found to match "/company-profile/amazon.com" with
{:method=>:get})

How can i avoid this?

Regards,
SG

Just specify a catchall condition on the parameter :

map.connect 'company/:company', :controller => 'community', :action =>
'search', :company => /.*/

PS: this mailing list is almost french oriented ;)
