Thank you for the help. Putting "@micropost = Micropost.new" in pages_controller.rb solved this error. However, I now have a new error which states "undefined method `humanize' for nil:NilClass". It says the error is at the line "<%= f.label @user.email %><br />". I defined @user = User.new in pages_controller.rb.
I am doing this a little bit differently from Michael Hartl's book. I want to be able to submit on one form the micropost content, user e-mail address and password instead of having the user logged in.
