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 'hpricot' => true irb(main):004:0> quit

but from the rails console I seem to not be able to:

Rails 3 applications uses Bundler, you need to indicate your hpricot dependency in your Gemfile.

Please read Rails Guides:

http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html#installing-the-required-gems

And how bundler works:

http://gembundler.com/rationale.html

Please add "hpricot" to your Gemfile and then "bundle install" it.
