Hi, I want users of my application to send emails using a feedback form to other users of my application. I don''t want to publish their email addresses, but I have them in my application. I have an ActionMailer model class called contact.rb. My problem is that I don''t know how to set up the Contact form so that it can send information directly to the controller that then emails the information, by sending it to the ActionMailer. I have found some examples, but they seem complex and all the examples sends the email using a view. Can someone please give an example? Your help will be appreciated. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
A quick google is all you need: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/ActionMailer http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionMailer/Base.html Or buy one of the Rails books. -Jonathan.

The problem I am having is passing the information from the email feedback form to the controller and then sending the information in an email. At the moment I can''t seem to be able to pass the info to the controller. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
The data from the form gets passed to the action in params. As well as
the data from params, you can pass anything to the mailer.
class MyController
def my_action
MyMailer.deliver_message(params[:text], :subject => ''My
email'')
end
end
Your mailer could be...
class MyMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def message(text, options = {})
# set subject, recipients, etc... see one of the examples
end
end
You say you can''t pass data from the form on the page to the
controller? That problem is unrelated to sending the email. Look for
some examples of submitting forms (any Rails tutorial).
