It might be good since both of you pointed to the same solution :-) Thanks guys! It might be good since both of you pointed to the same solution :-)

Maybe you could modify your routes.rb to something like this: map.connect 'posts-archive/', :controller => 'posts', :action => 'index', :type => 'archive' This way you would preserve your controller and action and get a new clean -and hopefully cacheable- URL.

map.resources :posts, :collection => { :archive => :get }

This will get you:

GET /posts => PostsController#index

and

GET /posts/archive => PostsController#archive

So turn /posts?type=archives into /posts/archive. Also check out this plugin: http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/action_cache, it may help with some things. I have not done exactly what you're doing here yet though so these are just general hints...
