So this will generate
params[:contact][:email_attributes][<email_id>][<email_field>] =>
<field value in form>
Each element in this params is a hash.
Check your server logs to verify that that is what you're getting.

and my contact.rb is class Contact < ActiveRecord::Base

def email_attributes=(email_attributes)
email_attributes.each do |attributes|
email_attributes is a hash with keys being email id's pointing to
email attributes.
See previous note above.
When you do email_attributes.each |attributes| , 'attributes' will be
an array with the first
value being the key and the 2nd element being the value.
