Hey B! Just a few things.
First off, there is a more efficient way of opening a file for writing. Try
the following instead:
textlog = File.open("text.log", "w")
Secondly, when I run your script, the text.log file is *not* empty. There
are in fact 70 blank lines in the output file. That tells me something. It
tells me that you are correctly opening and writing to the file, but you
just aren't capturing the right information somewhere.
I replaced your link iteration with the following and I got the log file to
list all the URL's:
ie.links.each do |link|
textlog.puts link.href
end
Is that what you wanted to do? If not, please post some more details with
what you are looking for and we'll try to help.
Cheers! Paul C.
