RubyOnRails - One view, many actions

Ruby
1

Hi all,
I’ve got a view named "prompt.rhtml"and a controller named “customer”
with some actions (“prompt”, “getdata”, and so on…). Of course, the
URL “/customer/prompt” is associated to the action “prompt” and then
to the view “prompt.rhtml”, but is it possible to associate the action
“getdata” with the view “prompt.rhtml”? If so, how can I do this?

Thanks,
Matthew

Hi Pat,
if I use

render :action => “prompt”

in “getdata” action, I have:

getdata (action) → prompt (action) → prompt (view)

but I’d like to have:

getdata (action) → prompt (view)

Is it possible?

Thank you,
Matthew

What? No you don’t. It just runs the getdata action and renders the
view that corresponds to the action named “prompt.” It doesn’t run
that other action. Anyway, I also showed you another way with render
:template.

Also I just noticed this is on rubytalk…you should direct any Rails
messages to the rails mailing list.
