Hi people,  
i have this route in rails

[http://localhost:3002/gdm/9/cd/posts/10/comments](http://localhost:3002/gdm/9/cd/posts/10/comments)

we can see we have a namespace with prefix in gdm/9/cd/

also we have two controllers

i will create a helper, and need get ther controllers name with  
commands

i know i can get “comments” with \<%=controller\_name%\>

But how can i get “posts”

Sorry for my bad english =/

Thx
