Re: Multiple routes that execute the same action

Most of the time, the URL-matching algorithms (in any framework ...) allow you to specify regular-expressions of various sorts to specify the URLs that should invoke a particular subroutine.   And, they usually allow for a list of regexes to be associated with any particular sub.

That being said ... consider also that maybe the simplest and most obvious approach might be the best one:   specify different subroutines for each URL pattern, and have each of them gather-up whatever parameters might be in their URLs (each in their own way), and then return the result of a call to a separate, common subroutine to handle the common behavior.   To my way of thinking, this puts no real burden on the programmer, is perfectly clear, and graciously facilitates variations in the URL-layout without adding complexity or “coupling” one routine to another.
