module ActionController #:nodoc:

  # Protect a controller's actions with the #protect_from_forgery method.  Failure to validate will result in a ActionController::InvalidToken 
  # exception.  Customize the error message through the use of rescue_templates and rescue_action_in_public.
  #
  #   class FooController < ApplicationController
  #     # uses the cookie session store
  #     protect_from_forgery :except => :index
  #
  #     # uses one of the other session stores that uses a session_id value.
  #     protect_from_forgery :secret => 'my-little-pony', :except => :index
  #   end
  #
  # Valid Options:
  #
  # * <tt>:only/:except</tt> - passed to the before_filter call.  Set which actions are verified.
  # * <tt>:secret</tt> - Custom salt used to generate the form_authenticity_token.  Leave this off if you are using the cookie session store.
  # * <tt>:digest</tt> - Message digest used for hashing.  Defaults to 'SHA1'
