..good call on this one though, I added PRE tags on my index.rhtml and
the data is looking the way I want it...which is great news.
I am still a bit baffled as to why I have to write the data to a file
first, then open the file and put it in PRE tags as opposed to using
PUTS statements in my original script and assigning that to a variable
which gets called by my index page which still causes the format to be
skewed.

my_data.rb code:
data.each do |line|
a.write(line) #--this writes to my_data.dat
puts line #--this puts the same data to STDOUT
end
---
controller code:
def index
@my_data = `/usr/bin/my_data.rb` #this causes data to be skewed
[EMAIL PROTECTED] = File.open("/usr/bin/my_data.dat").read #this works
end
---
index.rthml code:
<pre><%= simple_format @my_data %></pre>
Perhaps the way I'm writing to STDOUT in my_data.rb is causing the
skewing of my data?
thanks
