[Rails] Re: Rails 3 and application/json

I replied to this earlier but I think I may have accidentally clicked
discard instead of send. Sorry if this is a duplicate:

I tried that method (using respond_with). Even then the requests gets
processed as HTML.

So on my Rails 2 setup just setting CONTENT_TYPE = 'application/json'
causes the request to be processed as a json format.

On Rails 3 that isn't working so everything gets set as HTML. Do I
need to set HTTP_ACCEPT instead of CONTENT_TYPE? I get the feeling
Rails 3 uses CONTENT_TYPE for the incoming parsing (since the incoming
json is parsed correctly) and I need to set some other type to force a
JSON *response*. It isn't clear where that should be set though.

Thanks

Joe
