Hard coding codes in Rails

Question

Say I have this:

<%= link_to "My Big Link", page_path(:id => 4) %>

And on my page. rb I want to show urls by their permalink, so I use the standard:

 def to_param
    "#{id}-#{title.parameterize}"
 end

Now, when I click "My Big Link", it returns me to the correct page, but the URL in the address bar does not display the desired permalink. Instead, it just shows the standard:

wwww.mysite.com/pages/4 

Is it because I hardcoded the id in page_path? It also does not work if I use direct html, for example ..

<a href="/pages/4">My Big Link</a>

I would appreciate it if someone could test the same behavior and let me know if this is intended or not. I need the ability to hard code: id specify exact pages ...
