hi all,
two questions:
(1) is there any way to map one URL to another when neither of them is
a controller/action?
i.e., the user enters http://foo.com/bar/baz, and the static resource
living at public/zoom/pop.mp3 gets served?
(2) is there any way to see the actual response headers that are
actually returned by the server? I know I can telnet to the port and
type in a request, but I want to see what happens when a Flash movie
internally makes a request. It seems to work if I make the request
myself through the browser or through manual (telnet) http, but it’s
not working when the Flash movie makes it so I want to see the raw http
that the server is serving up. Suggestions?
thanks,
brian

Don’t know, sorry. Seems like it would be useful to have a generic way
to specify a base uri in rails so that for example a site could be
served from behind a proxy with a different url relative to /

I suggest you investigate these:
