Chris,

You should be able to use Rails's built in routing to handle this. In config/routes.rb, add the following line.

map.connect '', :controller => "page", :action => "home"

Hi everyone,

This is my first post, woohoo!

The default rails configuration for a server has the controller
and action embedded into the URL.  We presently use mod_rewrite
to move http://vuzit.com requests to http://vuzit.com/page/home .
However, we would prefer to have this page loaded, but still keep
the user on http://vuzit.com such that when they bookmark the
page it doesn't have the controller/action embedded into it.  Has
anyone dealt with this scenario?

Any help is greatly appreciated. -Chris
