ruby on rails - POSTing from a controller. Need help -

i have bit of strange situation. in process of modifying fat_free_crm client. want lightweight crm automatically create few followup tasks in weeks following customer's entry system. in contacts controller, writing method run when create action performed. action automatically create 4 necessary tasks. have data saved in several hashes.

is there way can these queries without changing pages? is, query create contact going through task.new(hash_name).save doesn't seem function intended or @ least, intended.

any ideas?

def autotask(user,contact)   user.id   t=time.now   task1 = [     :hash_data => here   ]    task2 =[     :hash_data => here   ]    task3 =[     :hash_data => here   ]    task4 =[       :hash_data => here   ]    task=task.new(task1)   task.save   task=task.new(task2)   task.save   task=task.new(task3)   task.save   task=task.new(task4)   task.save end 

task1 = [     :hash_data => here   ] 

makes task1 array instead of hash. if want hash instead, need change brackets curly braces:

task1 = {     :hash_data => here   } 

the constructor accepts hash , ignore array.
