How to submit a form through Controller?

SE123

I have registration form, where I want to store the whole details of consumer to be saved in DB and then send a welcome mail to consumer.

I want to know whether my solution is correct or not.

I am writing a controller which takes the parameter RequestContext context
I'll fetch all values of form in method saveData using getParameter and then save the info in DB and then call the send method where I'll send mail to consumer using Transport.send.
I want to know whether I am on the correct track? If yes what will be my method return type? and how will I map my controller name with my form which is present in Appearence XSL section?

Sounds like you are on the right path.

Which version of LiveSite?

Pre-3.1: You have to specify component controllers in the Data section (see the documentation)

3.1+: You can have component controllers like above and also page ans site controllers that you configure through page and site settings (respectively).
