Persist the same url even if validation fails

Rails

Hi
I have routes defined like
map.resources :staff, :member => {:registration_completion => :put}
map.staff_registration ‘/staff_registration/:code’, :controller =>
‘staff’, :action => ‘registration’

And I have controller actions like

def registration
@user = User.find_by_perishable_token!(params[:code])
@staff = @user.staff
render :action => :registration, :layout => ‘registration’
end

And this render the file registration which is edit form The form is

<% form_for @user, :url => staff_registration_completion_url(@staff),
:html => {:method => :put} do |f| %>

<%end%>

And upon submission this goes to action
def registration_completion
@staff = Staff.find(params[:id])
@user = @staff.user
if @user.update_attributes(params[:user])
redirect_to login_url
else
flash.now[:error] = @user.errors.full_messages.join(“
”)
render :action => :registration,:layout =>
‘company_registration’
end
end

 And my problem is before submitting the form the url is like

http://localhost:3000/registration/FFhJhsVz

 But if in the registration_completion action if it capture any

error sure it will render else part That is registartyion action again
.Which is what I expect. But now the url is
http://localhost:3000/registration_completion/2/edit

      My question is how can I make the url even if the update fails

to
http://localhost:3000/registration/FFhJhsVz .What changes should I
made to routes? Please help

Thanks
Tom

Hi
I could solve it by modifying routes like

map.connect ‘/staff_registration/:code’, :controller => :staff,
:action => :registration_completion,:conditions => { :method => :put }
map.staff_registration ‘/staff_registration/:code’, :controller =>
‘staff’, :action => ‘registration’

And modified action registration_completion like
def registration_completion
@user = User.find_by_perishable_token!(params[:code])
@staff = @user.staff

-----------etc
end

And also form_for like
<% form_for @user, :url => staff_registration_url(:code =>
params[:code]), :html => {:method => :put} do |f| %>

   This problem was there in my mind for months. Now it is solved.

Posting it for whom search with similar problem
