Uploading and Mailing documents

Rails
1

What I want is a document uploader on the front end so my visitors can
upload their CV or a completed application form and then submit this
document. On submission, an email will be sent with the document
attached to a specified email address.

If any code is required, then don’t hesitate to ask. So, can someone
spare some time to help me out or point me in the direction of where to
begin?

Rails comes with ActionMailer, which supports emailing attachments.

Thank you, but first, I need my application to actually have the ability
to upload the document I want to attach and mail.

Most people use Paperclip for that.

google for it. For instance:
