Message: [QUOTE="Cd Cd, post: 4573890"] But if I go something like #!/usr/bin/ruby -w require 'net/http' h=Net::HTTP.new('[URL="http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com',80"]www.pragmaticprogrammer.com',80[/URL]) response=h.get('/index.html',nil) if(response.message=="OK") b = response.body p b end 'b' will print out the body of the web page. So 'b' in this case would be become the receiver (ie imgs = b.scan(/<img src="(.*?)"/m)), then we go from getting the value 'b' (via p b) to 'b' acting like a method (via imgs = b.scan(/<img src="(.*?)"/m))?
