[Dancer-users] Routing: captures in prefix

Hello!

>     request->path_info($path);
> }

It works with some changes. In particular, since in chances path_info,
this hook gets called multiple times and does not work as expected.

Anyway, even though I succeeded in changing the code to only execute the
first time the hook is called, I think I'll stick to repeating myself in
every action for now. I don't know Dancer enough to be able to handle
possible side effects of which I'm now unaware. ;)

Thanks!!

Michele.
