Good idea, never thought to push it through search.

As there could feasibly be a lot of different URL formats that  
migrators will want to have handled, is it possible (bearing in mind  
that my total experience of Rails is still just about measured in  
hours rather than days) to have a catch-all entry in routes that  
throws anything it hasn't matched to search?  So something along the  
lines of:

   map.connect 'whats left',
     :controller => 'live', :action => 'search', :page => nil,
     :requirements => { ?? }

Which, right now, I would have no clue how to make work.  I could  
also very well be talking rubbish, but is something like this  
workable?  You wouldn't have to worry about rewrites in htaccess for  
whatever old format of URL you had then.  Wouldn't be as nice as an  
exact match either, but at least there are no routing errors.

That would certainly encourage migrators.

Erhm, fool of me... I forgot restart webrick. Sorry.

First of all, Typo seems to work fine. But I'm trying to syndicate a pair of 
Typo's blogs into a Drupal site. Drupal uses strtotime php function to parse 
the date, which claims to interpret GNU Date input formats[1]. According to 
Ruby, my timezone is WEST but it doesn't appears in [1]. So, PHP doesn't 
understand this string: "Sat, 30 Jul 2005 13:39:33 WEST". So, i'm just 
tweaking the dates format. Anyway, now that it worked, I'll try to find out 
how to solve the problem without messing with Typo code ;)

Thank you for your reply.
