Thanks Mr Tufty, that worked a treat. Shame you have to create a route for every controller, but at least it works! Kevin, I think what you're doing is very similar to what I wanted to do. So, if I understand it correctly, then you will need to create a route for each controller. Ian On Feb 8,

Good information guys, thanks. I'm trying to do the opposite of Ian, in a way. I would like to setup a route that connects a particular controller if a request is made that is not found. Iow, something like this: domain.com/anythingyouwant => MyController domain.com/hello_world => MyController do
