2. Ik werk met de volgende computer: \<%= radio\_button “helpdesk”, “os”, “windows” %\>Windows \<%= radio\_button “helpdesk”, “os”, “mac” %\>Mac \<%= radio\_button “helpdesk”, “os”, “linux” %\>Linux ```

3. Mijn gebruikersnaam is:

<%= text_field 'helpdesk', ``` ‘user\_name’, :class =\> “txtfield”, :size =\> 20 %\> ```

4. Mijn e-mail adres is:

<%= text_field 'helpdesk', ``` ‘email’, :class =\> “txtfield”, :size =\> 20 %\> ```

5. Het probleem is op de volgende ``` datum opgetreden: \<%= text\_field ‘helpdesk’, ‘datum’, :class =\> “txtfield”, :size =\> 20 %\> ```

6. De URL waar het probleem zich ``` voordoet is: \<%= text\_field ‘helpdesk’, ‘url’, :class =\> “txtfield”, :size =\> 20 %\> ```

7. Bestand toevoegen:

<%= file_field 'helpdesk', 'file', :class => "txtfield", :size => ``` 20 %\> ```

8. Het originele bestand heb ik ``` bijgevoegd: \<%= radio\_button “helpdesk”, “bestand”, “ja” %\>ja \<%= radio\_button “helpdesk”, “bestand”, “nee” %\>nee ```

9. Graag zo volledig mogelijk ``` omschrijven (stapsgewijs) wat het probleem / je vraag is. \<%= text\_area ‘helpdesk’, ‘text’, :cols =\> “70”, :rows =\> 20 %\> ```

Hartelijk dank voor het invullen van ``` bovenstaand formulier. Klik op versturen en wij streven ernaar binnen 5 werkdagen te reageren. ```

<%= submit_tag "versturen", :onClick => "", :id => 'disable- ``` me’ %\> \<% end %\> def ticket\_with\_attachment(browser, os, email, user\_name, datum, url, file, bestand, text, sent\_at = Time.now ) @subject = 'Helpdesk verzoek: ’ + user\_name @body = { :browser =\> browser, :os =\> os, :user\_name =\> user\_name, :email =\> email, :datum =\> datum, :url =\> url, :bestand =\> bestand, :text =\> text } @recipients = “removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid” @from = “removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid” @sent\_on = sent\_at unless file.blank? attachment :body =\> file.read, :filename =\> file.original\_filename end end That’s working code from one of our apps. Not very nice looking, but should do. Important parts are the file\_field in the form (all others are just text or radio buttons) and those lines in the ActionMailer delivery method: unless file.blank? attachment :body =\> file.read, :filename =\> file.original\_filename end which will attach the file to the mail ---

I read your code and do something like this in my actionmailer class def contact(recipient, subject, message,user\_id,attachment1=nil, sent\_at = Time.now) @body[‘user\_id’]= user\_id ``` @subject = subject @recipients = recipient @from = 'removed_email_address@domain.invalid' @sent_on = sent_at @body["title"] = 'You have new Job Application' @body["message"] = message unless attachment1.nil? attachment "application/octet-stream" do |a| a.body=attachment1.read a.filename=attachment1.original_filename end end attachment :content_type=>"image/jpeg", :body=>File.read("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/images/ ``` afterpinkslip.jpg"), :filename=\>File.basename("#{RAILS\_ROOT}/public/images/ afterpinkslip.jpg") end and it works beautifully. Thank you once again.
