Ruby browser

hi guys,

I’m trying to do a program that automates some site usage, like fetch the site, fill a field and “press” the send button. So, it’ll behave like a real browser. Is there a plugin out there ready to work ? Or, then, how can i make a simple browser, what’s the necessaries libraries ?

Thanks!

You should take a look at webrat[1]. I don't know about the documentation, it wasn't that good a while ago, but maybe they've improved it. Anyway, if you google around you will find some examples and things that will help you because it is pretty easy to use

Hope it helps.
