Change

req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url1.path)

to

req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url1.path)

?

Well... that run's without any errors too, but i dont get the result i
would like.

I think i will explain a little more about what i am trying to do ;-)

I have a webpage on a m0n0wall (see http://m0n...) where you can
do some user management. On this page is a link that is marked up like
this:

<A onclick="return confirm('Do you really want to delete this user?')"
href="services_captiveportal_users.php?act=del&id=1">
<IMG title="delete user" height=17 src="x.gif" width=17 border=0>
</A>

Now what i want ruby to do is call the page
services_captiveportal_users.php with the action "act=del" and the
apropriate "id=?", so i can delete users this way.

What happens so far, is i get the page with a list of all users
currently registered, wich is ok, but the user id i request to be
deleted is not deleted??

Is it maybe because of the "onclick="return...blah" in the href??
I have the feeling i am missing some basic law of nature here, and in
the process of embarassing myself bigtime...

Thanks in advantage

The fact that the whole thing was a ruse to prove the long held liberal lie
that US gun dealers were supplying Mexican drug gangs so as to mount an
attack on the constitution and the second amendment.

OBOBO would never do that. Let innocent Latino Women and Children and
our own citizens get killed just for his agenda. Then again.

His whole reelection bid is about putting himself ahead of the good of the
