Your destroy action is being invoked via a GET. That's dangerous. Rails tried to help protect you from making this 'mistake' and included the following in your controller.

# GETs should be safe (see http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/whenToUseGet.html) verify :method => :post, :only => [ :destroy, :create, :update ],          :redirect_to => { :action => :list }

You can take the verify out if you choose to take that risk. Better yet, change the link in the view that's invoking the destroy action to use the POST method.

hth, Bill

i've tried ":method => :delete" but didn't work, the correct method should be :delete, no?

but it works with :post method thanks Bill!
