Hi there,  
I have a URL like this:  
/artworks/show/4  
I’ve turned on caching in development mode, and my controller says:

caches\_action :index, :list, :show

as well as

def show  
@artwork = @artist.artworks.find(params[:id], :include =\> :tags)  
@tags = @artwork.tags  
end

but for some reason i only ever get the cache file:  
/artworks/show.cache  
with no id parameter

I’m running 1.2.3  
anyone have any ideas?

thanks  
dorian

ok, I answered that myself.  
I had a route that was biting before the one I was expecting.  
note to self - check routes, regularly.
