Googling "ruby open url" (sans quotes) yields some promising hits. Summary: check out net::http, and open-uri. I didn't read it in enough detail to see how it handles authentication (if at all), but at least it's a starting point. Maybe Googling "ruby open authenticated url" might be useful? I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader. ;-) -Dave -- LOOKING FOR WORK, preferably Ruby on Rails, in NoVa/DC; see main web site.
