I am developing an assignment for best ror practice.

For the same,

I am making a login & password form.
It is something like that below



LOGIN.


Login : ______________

Password : ____________


Submit Register Forgot Password.


I have made this in view as in index.erb.html.

I want to check it in Controller,

HOw do I suppose to take the user value in Controller.



THe below is the code I wrote in index.erb.html..........



<h3>Login</h3>
<%= form_tag :action => "login" %>
   Login: <%= text_field "users", "name", :size => 20
%><br />
   Password: <%= password_field "users",
"hashed_password",:size =>
20%><br />
   <%= submit_tag "Submit" %>

  <%= link_to ''Register'', :action =>
''signup'' %>
    <%= link_to ''Forgot my password'', :action =>
''forgot_password'' %>


My table with name users in db has following attributes.

Hunt,
first thing, hashed_password is spelled incorrectly in your db..

As you currently have it stated in your form, the way to retrieve it 
within your controller would be

user_params = params[:user]

def hash_algorithim(password) {
#hash your password here
}

user = User.new(:user => user_params[:name], :hashed_password => 
hash_algorithim(user_params[:hashed_password]))
