Do I have to pass the ID-parameter when using respond_to?

Hi, I would like to append ".rss", straight to my action, ex. "/controller/action.rss". However it seems that I have to use "host/action/1.rss" (or another ID-parameter), otherwise I get a routing error "No route matches "/controller/action.rss" with {:method=>:get}

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Add a custom route, something like:

map.connect 'foo/:rss',               :controller => 'foo',               :action => 'bar',               :requirements => { :rss => /^[\w]+\.rss$/ }
