Hi,

Previously, I worked using Rails-1.2.3 version.

Present, I am using Rails 2.2.

I have used command to generate scaffold.  
In scaffold generation, ‘users\_controller.rb’, ‘user.rb’ files were  
generated automatically.

Here, I am able to use user\_url(userId) method in views. It is giving  
url for user’s show page.

I got surprise. I didn’t observe this method in user\_helper.rb. But, I  
am able to use this.

Actually, where will be defined above method.

Please, clarify my doubt.

Thanks in Advance.
