Hpricot problem with free text
John Zoldiark

Hi and thanks for the help, I am new to ruby and I am trying to get some
data from a website using the Hpricot library.I am doing this: links =
Hpricot(index_page).search("td.det_movie").collect{ |link| link["href"]
} to get an array of data but the thing is that right now I need some
text out of tags and the previous version only works with tags.
This is the code that I am reading, and I need the part "The Day the
Earth Stood Still"
<a class="link" href="detalle_movie.php?mv_id=618">The Day the Earth
Stood Still</a>
thanks for any help

Hi John,
I haven't used Hpricot much, but you may want to dig through the API
documentation a bit more. Also, why's website has a few good tutorials
on how to grab data in different ways.
I believe the method you want to be looking at is "innerHTML" (or some
such name).

Thanks for the idea but I have already try innerHTML but is returning
the data but not in an array structure. I need something similar to
innerHTML.collect or something like that. I have read a lot of
documentation about Hpricot but I have not see something to fix my
problem.
