Laravel 4 - Redirect::route with parameters

Question

Is it possible to specify a Redirect::route to a Resource Controller with parameters and specify how the parameters are handled?

I have the following route defined:

Route::resource('account','AccountController');

In another route I want to be able to pass parameters to account.create with values acquired earlier so I can pre-populate the create form, but want them passed using as a POST request.

Redirect::route('account.create',array('name' => $name));

The above works, but passes the parameters as a GET request.

Answer 1

Redirect::route('account.create')->with('name', $name);

This'll flash it to the session, which you would then retrieve after the redirect with Session::get('name').
