I'm not entirely sure how to ask this, but I'm very confused as to what I'm doing wrong, am I over thinking this?
<p>Please enter your name below.</p>
<form method="post" action="/signatures/create">
<input type="text" name="signature">
<input type="submit">
</form>
require "sinatra"
# Appends the signature to the file as a new line.
def save_signature(signature)
File.open("signatures.txt", "a") do |file|
file.puts signature
end
end
get "/signatures/new" do
erb :new
end
post "/signatures/create" do
save_signature(params["text"], params["signature"])
redirect URI.escape"/#{params["text"]}"
end

Treehouse Teachersave_signature takes one argument, but you're passing two. Reduce it to one (and make sure it's the correct one, because only one of the two parameters you're accessing is valid), and Task 3 should pass.

8,347 PointsThe task is "Within the post "/signatures/create" route block, call the save_signature method. save_signature takes a signature string as an argument, so pass it the value of the signature form field."
I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!
