Hi,

According to page_example_menu(), it seems that wildcard is optional. That is:

  $items['bar/baz/%/%'] = array(
    'title' => 'Baz',
    'page callback' => 'page_example_baz',
    'page arguments' => array(2, 3),
    'access arguments' => array('access baz'),
    'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,
  );

should match bar/baz/1/2, bar/baz, and, by my own assumption, /bar/baz/1. However, i got "Page not found" for both /bar/baz/1 and bar/baz while bar/baz/1/2 do work fine. So, the doc is incorrect or am I missing something? If I want to make both wildcards optional, do I have to do something like the following?

$items['bar/baz] = ...
$items['bar/baz/%'] = ...
$items['bar/baz/%/%'] = ...

If you want to make the wild cards optional use

$items['bar/baz'] = ...

And then in the page callback should look something like 

function page_example_baz($arg0=nul, $arg1=null) { ..

And if something is supplied like /bar/baz/1 then $arg0 will have a value of 1

Thanks a lot!! Perhaps the document at http://api.drupal.org/api/function/page_example_menu/6 should be corrected, specifically this sentence "If the user accesses http://example.com/?q=bar/baz, the menu system will find a match and execute page_example_baz().".
