Hi all,

Does anyone knows how to access a method’s url within the method

for instance;

## def index

–  
– #some code that will append a parameter to the url that will call  
the show method.  
show  
end

def show  
url = (show method’s url with the appended parameter )  
puts url # =\> [http://localhost:8080/app/Input/show?cv=xxxxxxxxxx](http://localhost:8080/app/Input/show?cv=xxxxxxxxxx)  
end

The idea is to be able to access the appended parameter within the  
show method.

…will appreciate any idea.
