For the sake of completeness, here's a .rhtml example:

<% require 'cgi' # Require the CGI library
cgi = CGI.new()  # New CGI object
key = cgi.params['key']
%><html><head><title>Test</title></head>
  <body>
    <% if key.empty? %>
      <form method="post">
        Please enter the key: <input type="text" name="key"><br>
        <input type="submit" value="go"> </form>
    <% else %>
      the key is :<%= key %>
    <% end %>
  </body> </html>
