I use rails2.3 and restful\_authentication-plugin.I use the  
redirect\_back\_or\_default action like this redirect\_back\_or\_default  
(’/’) ,that is-it assumes not login now,if login directly,redirect to  
homepage,if not,redirect back to the previous page.But  
redirect\_back\_or\_default action always redirects to the homepage  
despite of the latter situtaion:previous page.  
I know the fact that if access denys,the store\_location should be  
called by login-required action. But it seems does not works actually.
