Forum: Ruby on Rails Redirect to the url after login

Hi,
I am using authlogic as a authentication mechanism.
I am sending out an email to user if he has any new friend request. I am
giving a URL in the email from which he can accept the invitation.
My problem is whenever the user is not logged in he is redirected to the
login page first. After successful login he should be redirected to
"accept_friendship" URL But it doesn't it goes to the default page after
successful login.

How should I fix this?

Thanks,
Tushar Gandhi

There should be lots of rails tutorials out there that speak about 
remembering the original request URL for redirecting after a successful 
login.

http://ethilien.net/archives/better-redirects-in-rails/  is one such 
resource.
