Newbie: Replacing index.html in public folder

Rails
#1

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how can I achieve this:
Say if I have a e-commerce site, I want to list all the products when
user type in www.mysite.com Not www.mysite.com/products

Please note there is no controller in the URL, how do I replace the
default Rails index.html and display my products page.

Hope my question makes sense.

Look into routes, e.g. routes.rb. Off the top of my head I’d try
something
like:
map.connect ‘’, :controller => ‘products’, :action => 'list

Hope this helps.

Sigh… I hate it when I type “e.g.” when I meant “i.e.” - I’m usually
stickler for such things. :confused:
