Rails - Jul 2005 - Emailing Form Submitted Images

I''m completely puzzled. I''ve searched the web, the wiki and
the docs
and cannot find a way to get a user submitted image through a form  
and have that be emailed off to someone.

I can get an email to send alright, but I can''t get anything to  
attach for it. Has anyone else come across a solution for this.

My code so far is this:

     def submit_model_search
         feedback = @params
         email = FeedbackMailer.create_model_search(feedback)
         email.set_content_type("multipart", "mixed")
         email.mime_encode_multipart(feedback[:headshot])
         email.write_back
         FeedbackMailer.deliver(email)
     end


However, FeedbackMailer.deliver complains that deliver is not a  
method. So the only way I''ve gotten anything to send is doing a  
FeedbackMailer.deliver_blahblahblah.

Thanks much

Try this:

   class FeedbackMailer < ActionMailer::Base
     def model_search(feedback)
       ...
       attachment :content_type => "image/jpeg", :body =>
feedback
[:headshot]
       ...
     end
   end

Then you just do:

   def submit_model_search
     FeedbackMailer.deliver_model_search(@params)
   end
