Why did mislav-will_paginate start adding so much garbage to urls between rails 2.3.2 and 2.3.5?
- by user30997
I've used will_paginate in a number of projects now, but when I moved one of them to Rails 2.3.5, clicking on any of the pagination links (page number, next, prev, etc.,) went from getting nice URLs like this:
http://foo.com/user/1/date/2005_01_31/phone/555-6161
to this:
http://foo.com/?options[]=user&options[]=date&options[]=2005_01_31&options[]=phone&options[]=555-6161
I have a route that looks like this that is probably the source of the 'options' keyword:
map.connect '/browse/*options', :controller=>'assets', :action=>'browse'
It's enough of an annoyance that I'm willing to roll a paginator to get around this if there isn't a way to get back to where I was before. Is there a way to get will_paginate to turn array-style routes into sane urls again?
Thanks.
