Ruby on Rails

You could do this with a param in the url… possibly MD5 the customer email. Then you can call some method to check it. Something like

= render "your_form" if portfolio_customer?(params[:customer])

#then in the model.

def portfolio_customer?(customer_key)
customer_key == Digest::MD5.hexdigest(portfolio.customer_email)
end
