[Rails] Re: passing a variable from controller to model

[Anand]

Create a Model Object

Suppose the Model's name is form.rb

in the controller, create an object for this model
    form_object = Form.new

    now assign an element to this object.
    form_object['element1'] = "Hi this is the .............."

    now call the method in the model which is defined belw.
    form_object.validate_this

in the model Form. .....

    define a method like validate_this
    def validate_this
        puts "The variable is #{element1}"
    end

now u can access this variable in this method

Regards,
Anand
