I\'m new to all three, and I\'m trying to write a simple contact form for a website. The code I have come up with is below, but I know there are some fundamental problems with

    #{} is interpolation that is used inside "". Just using it outside for a variable assignment won't work.

    It would be more likely to be used like this:

    number_of_people = 15 
    
    Puts "There are #{number_of_people} scheduled tonight"

    In case anyone can use this, here is what you might need to use your gmail account to send mail.

    post '/contact' do 
    require 'pony'
    Pony.mail(
       :name => params[:name],
      :mail => params[:mail],
      :body => params[:body],
      :to => 'a_lumbee@gmail.com',
      :subject => params[:name] + " has contacted you",
      :body => params[:message],
      :port => '587',
      :via => :smtp,
      :via_options => { 
        :address              => 'smtp.gmail.com', 
        :port                 => '587', 
        :enable_starttls_auto => true, 
        :user_name            => 'lumbee', 
        :password             => 'p@55w0rd', 
        :authentication       => :plain, 
        :domain               => 'localhost.localdomain'
      })
    redirect '/success' 
    end
    

    Note the redirect at the end, so you will need a success.haml to indicate to the user that their email was sent successfully.

    Uhmm, i tried in irb the following:

    foo = #{23}
    

    Of course it wont work! the '#' is for comments in Ruby UNLESS it occurs in a string! Its even commented out in the syntax highlighting. What you wanted was:

    name = "#{params[:name]}"
    

    as you did in your solution (which is not necessary, as it already is a string).

    Btw, the reason why the code does not throw an error is the following:

    a =
    b =
    42
    

    will set a and b to 42. You can even do some strange things (as you accidentally did) and set the variables to the return value of a function which takes these variables as parameters:

    def foo(a,b)
        puts "#{a.nil?} #{b.nil?}" #outputs 'true true'
        return 42
    end
    a =
    b =
    foo(a,b)
    

    will set a and b to 42.

    I figured it out for any of you wondering:

    haml:

    %form{ :action => "", :method => "post"}
      %fieldset
        %ol
          %li
            %label{:for => "name"} Name:
            %input{:type => "text", :name => "name", :class => "text"}
          %li
            %label{:for => "mail"} email:
            %input{:type => "text", :name => "mail", :class => "text"}
          %li
            %label{:for => "body"} Message:
            %textarea{:name => "body"}
        %input{:type => "submit", :value => "Send", :class => "button"}
    

    And the app.rb:

    post '/contact' do
            name = params[:name]
            mail = params[:mail]
            body = params[:body]
    
            Pony.mail(:to => '*emailaddress*', :from => "#{mail}", :subject => "art inquiry from #{name}", :body => "#{body}")
    
            haml :contact
        end

    I've created an example of this in two parts that is available on github. The signup form app is here: signup-form-heroku and an example of the static website that interacts with this is here: static-website-to-s3-example. The form app is built using Sinatra and is ready to deploy straight onto Heroku. The static site is ready to deploy straight to S3 and use amazon cloudfront.
