Hey guys

Just thinking about doing something… If I had a radient site, which I  
do,  
how could I then do something dynamic based on a cookie value, I guess I  
would have to build some radius tag or a behaviour to handle it wouldn’t  
I?

Has anyone ever tried this?

Thanks

Tim

A behavior might be a good way to handle this. Using behaviors you can  
access the same request and response objects that ActionController has  
access to. Take a look at Behavior::Base#process to see how it works.
