How can I turn this /Home/About/ into just /About/ using the rules in the Global.aspx file?

I used this:

routes.MapRoute(
    "HomeActions",
    "{action}",
    new
    {
        controller      = "Home",
        action          = "Index"  // I technically don't think this is required.
    },
    new  // The second object are route constraints
    {
        action          = "Index|FAQ|ContactUs|Examples|Materials|Members" // <-- various actions on my home controller.  Any regex works here.
    });

Create a new route before the default route like this:

routes.MapRoute("about", "About", new { controller = "YourController", action = "About" });

Add a route:

routes.MapRoute(
    "About",
    "About"
     new { controller = "Home", action = "About" });

Since it is hardcoded, you want to make sure it is before any routes that have placeholders for the various params.

   routes.MapRoute(
     "About",
     "About",
     new { controller = "Home", action = "About" }
   );

Just make sure it is place before the default route handler.

   public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
    {
      routes.MapRoute(
          "About", // Route name
          "About", // URL
          new { controller = "Home", action = "About" });

      ...

    }

@Scott: Thanks. Fixed it.
