Hello there,
I'm new here, and so may not have be aware of any previous discusion on this particular topic, but the lack of results when googling has led me to believe there has been none.
Currently, the custom MIME type sytax is as follows:
respond_to do |format| format.xml do # ... end
format.js do # ... end end
What I do not understand is why the following syntax should not be used instead:
case format when :xml # ... when :js # ... end
This would mean defining a #format method that returned the name of the negotiated content type.
Thoughts?
