I submitted this earlier, but the web forums went down and I''ve screwed up the thread, so I''m starting over. I''m trying to built a document upload system. The system has a main Document model with different subclasses for different types of documents. With the code below, if I attempt to create a Document, it works fine, but if I attempt to use one of the subclasses, I

I''m running Ruby 1.8.7, Rails 2.3.2, and Gem 1.3.4 I''m a newb, so bare with me... I''m reading Simply Rails 2. The book tells me to enter: $ rails shovell Then, $ sudo gem install mongrel Then, $cd shovell $ruby script/server However, when I type in that last bit, I get: LOTS OF STUFF/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/hpricot-0.8.1/lib/fast_xs.bundle: [BUG] Bus Error ruby 1.8.7

Is there anything in the utils to capture a screen ( or maybe just a window) and save to a file. I have this, but I have no idea where it came from, but it gives a corrupted image Paul # -*- ruby -*- # screen capture -- # This script runs with a Ruby/DL which is included in ruby-1.7. require ''dl/import'' module ScreenCapture extend DL::Importable dlload

Hey all! Just to preface, I am fairly new to RoR, and brand new to using hpricot. I am using the following code to scrape this xpath: "/html/body/div/div[5]/div/div[2]/div[2]/div[2]" from this url: "http://www.greatnonprofits.org/" Here is my code to do so (taken from igvita.com''s related blogpost): ************* require ''rubygems'' require

Hi, Is there any way to extract the html code of a https:// website in hpricot. When i use hpricot to access a https:// website i receive the following error. /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require'': no such file to load -- net/https (LoadError) from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'' from

All, Another easy question. In Hpricot, on a doc that I am using, I can do a .to_html method and retrieve the entire page. However, this doesn''t seem to work in Mechanize. My goal is to the text of the page and put it into a database to make it searchable with ferret (using the acts_as_ferret plugin in Rails). Does anyone have a good suggestion short of iterating over the entire

Hi, I have been stumped by this error Hpricot is generating in my rails app. The error looks like this: $ script/console Loading development environment (Rails 2.0.2) >> str = ''<p>lorem ipsum <a href="http://dolor.com/">dolor</a> sit amet.</p>'' => "<p>lorem ipsum <a href=\"http://dolor.com/\">dolor</a>

Hi guys, I wanted to fetch some info from webpage and use it in my db. I read hpricot is one way to do it. But the problem is I''m unable to use it with my app. For some reason after successfully installing hpricot it fails when I try to use it in the rails console. I''ve been trying to fix this for the last four-five days. I''m stumped ! I tried re-installing everything

This is in windows .. So from irb, I can load hpricot ok. (ruby 1.8.7) C:\Users\Laurence\rails-play\plug-test>irb irb(main):001:0> require ''hpricot'' LoadError: no such file to load -- hpricot from (irb):1:in `require'' from (irb):1 irb(main):002:0> require ''rubygems'' => true irb(main):003:0> require

It looks to me that hpricot is a dependency to building rspec: euclid% rake pre_commit (in /Users/smtlaissezfaire/ruby/projects/rspec/hpricot) rake aborted! Could not find RubyGem hpricot (>= 0.0.0) /Users/smtlaissezfaire/ruby/projects/rspec/hpricot/rakefile:9 (See full trace by running task with --trace) Let me know if I''m wrong. Otherwise, I''ll submit a patch in the docs.

assert_tag smells bad. Hpricot smells nice (apricotty!).

I have use hpricot to translate users'' input html. I want to remove bogusetag as follows: >>doc = Hpricot "<p> test world</b></p>", :xhtml_strict => true =>#<Hpricot::Doc {elem <p> " test world" {bogusetag </b>} </p>}> >>doc.to_s =>"<p> test world</b></p>" what I expected is

Hello, I''ve been trying for hours to parse an XML using Hpricot. Usually it''s not a problem. Here''s my simple code: #This works and outputs the proper xml data @url1 = ''http://www.sportingnews.com/stories/sportingnews/MLB/rss.xml'' @page1 = Hpricot(open(@url1)) <%= @page 1 %> #This does not work, and I''m scratching my head @url1 =

Is there a decent way to add a field to a form before posting it? I haven''t tried using HPricot manipulations just yet, since I can''t ever find really solid docs on hpricot.... Form#[]= doesn''t work because it first searches only pre-existing fields. I''m investigating how to write a patch now. But I thought maybe someone here might have an idea.

I have a bunch of html files with partial page content. I''d like to be able to include the content of these files in my RoR views without having to change or rename them. In PHP I''d simply use include("file.html"); What is the RoR equivalent of this? render_file insists on it being an rhtml template, and render_partial requires me to rename the file. Ideally, I

Hi Everyone, I just need some further help clarifying a custom rake task I''m building and the logistics of how it should be working. I''ve created a custom rake task in libs/tasks called scraper.rake which so far just contains the following: desc "This task will parse data from ncaa.org and upload the data to our db" task :scraper => :environment do # code goes

Hey everyone, I''ve been refactoring Mechanize for an 0.7.0 release. Basically I''m trying to clean the code up and there are a few features that I think are unnecessary, but I would like to ask people first. 1) REXML as a parser. I want to remove support for REXML. I don''t use it. Hpricot seems to do everything I need. 2) 1.8.2 thru 1.8.4 support

Hello to the list and thanks to Aaron for the cool software. I''ve been fooling around with Mechanize and Hpricot for a couple of days and from the docs I''ve read, the following code SHOULD work but doesn''t. I''ve tried the same code on a couple of different sites and I get the same exception for each. Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated.

I tried to install RedCloth-3.274 in jruby (trunk) but the install failed when RedCloth tried to build the C code using mkmf: I forget whether SuperRedcloth ever did build in JRuby?? I know Hpricot (which also uses ragel which can compile to Java code) works in JRuby -- with the patch here: https://code.whytheluckystiff.net/hpricot/ticket/131) I might be confusing the two ... FYI: If you
