Is there anyway to pull the current url inside a controller?

I'm doing some serious hacking. And at a certain point in my row of methods, all my params are lost, and there's no way for me to differentiate between two objects innapropriately sharing the same controller.

I thought I could do it by calling something like params[:foo] == "bar" , but at this point in the series of methods, there are no params available. That is because it is a method called before create.

create.before :create_before

However! They would have different URL's! So if I can just find a way to pull the params of the current url, I can solve this problem.

Any takers?

This is Rails 2.3.5

If you're actually in the controller, you can call request.path, which will return the currently requested path. However, given that params is not available, you may not actually be in a controller at that point. You have any code you can share?
