Inconsistant URL handling Feature Requests

Scoop does not seem to handle URL's correctly. This is a minor, UI point, but it sometimes confuses the hell out of me.

Disclaimer: I've never so much coded in perl, let alone hacked on scoop.

It's the URL's that get handled when doing things like, posting a comment.

You go into a story, and you get the URL like
http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2001/10/30/7383/3576

You post a comment, and your URL changes to
http://www.kuro5hin.org/#

But you are still in the story! I know this is done with hidden fields in the form, but I think it would look better to have the form action going to the http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2001/10/30/7383/3576 with the rest of the info in hidden fields.

Cause I agree, it is a little messy. I haven't played with it myself, when trying to add new features to scoop, but I've run across it in the code. The problem with the 'pretty' url is that it will call the wrong function. Maybe we could change it from just a '/' url to '/comment/2001/03/02/03/0202/post' that might call the right function, but I haven't looked into the feasability of it. Overall though, I agree with you :)

It's really hectic. I am also facing the same issue here and it is driving me nuts. Scoop does not seem to handle URL's correctly. This is a minor, UI point, but it sometimes confuses and its really disturbing. Need ur help. directv family package
