I created the website www.brandfetch.com with Rails. I’ve noticed that
Google & some search engines have indexed links into the site that are
only meant to be reached through Ajax (link_to_remote) calls within the
app. (e.g. www.brandfetch.com/rails/web_stats/get_domain_stats)
I know how to handle calls to an unknown method, but how can I handle
these links/calls to implemented methods that aren’t supposed to be
called directly?
This is the first site that I have seen that really shows of the power
of AJAX and RoR!!
Great Job!!
Now that I’m thinking about it, where are some other RoR websites that
shows this type of power…is there an update-to-date “Showcase” area
somewhere for RoR websites?
Great job! You might want to make the default route ‘’ work so one can
bookmark your home page properly without extra path info – thereby
allowing you to change controller names, etc. down the road.
