Is there anyway to send form fields that were just filled out (after the user hits submit) and send those values to a contrller? Also, is there a way to get the values of a certain field in a table and put that into the contrller? How would i do that?

right i understand colin what you mean, but u must have mis understood
my question-
My question is after the user hits submit, how can i transfer the
content for the fields in the form that he just filled out- into the
controller?
Do you understand?
FOr ex---
<% form_for @course do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>
<p>
<%= f.label :title %><br />
<%= f.text_field :title %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.label :subtitle %><br />
<%= f.text_field :subtitle %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.label :body %><br />
<%= f.text_area :body %>
</p>
<p><%= f.submit "Submit" %></p>
<% end %>
Now, for example i wrote the words "foo" for all of them.
In my Courses Controller, is there a way to pass the values of the
form fields into the controller?

I think you may benefit from working through the rails guides at http://guides.rubyonrails.org/. Start with Getting Started obviously. By the way, when replying could you insert your reply at appropriate point in previous email rather than at the top, it makes it easier to follow the thread.

I think he means how he can specify where the request is going to go.
The form_for takes an :url paramter that lets you set the destination
of the request.
<% form_for @course, :url => {:controller =>
''my_controller'', :action
=> ''my_action'', :id => ''my_id''} do |f|
%>
