Re: Paginator and routes

Hi again,

Now that I've come back to this, I'm finding out that it doesn't seem
to be possible to do what I want to do. Which is:

/mycontroller/ // <-- goes to mycontroller + index, shows pagination
/mycontroller/page:x // <-- should go to mycontroller + index,
straight to page x
/mycontroller/id // <-- goes to mycontroller + view

What I'm doing at the moment is catching up this route:

/mycontroller/page:x

on the view action and redirect with something like this:

$params = Router::getParams();
if(array_key_exists("page", $params["named"])){
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'mycontroller', 'action' =>
'index', 'page' => $params["named"]["page"]));
}

That works but takes the user to:

/mycontroller/index/page:x

Note the "index" action on the url which is what I want to avoid in
the first place.

This would work if I could catch a route like this in routes.php:

Router::connect('/mycontroller/page:*', array('controller' =>
'mycontroller', 'action' => 'index'));

But doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas more than welcome.

Ta!

Juan
