URL/Link generation question

Hi folks,

I'm fiddling around with h.link_to and h.url_for - trying
to
understand the link creation stuff better.

What I understood: h.link_to generates the HTML code,
h.url_for
generates the URL itself based on the routes configuration
and the
data I provide.

What I was wondering which of both methods takes care about
the
creation of the ? parameters of a link and any encoding of
the
corrresponding parameters?

How does routes handle the ? parameters of a url?

I digged around in the docs as well as the source but I
didn't find a
clue - maybe I looked for the wrong keyword.

Regards,
Andrew

I believe it converts any keyword args that don't correspond
to route
variables into query parameters.  I've got another Routes
problem so I
can't test it right now.
