Hmmm, well, actually, it kind of works. I did this: result.each do |item| price = item.search(".price").text.match(/\d+[.]\d+/) condition = item.search(".condition").text rating = item.search(".rating a").text.to_i seller = item.search(".seller b").text puts "#{price} - #{condition.chomp[8, condition.length]} - #{rating} - #{seller}" end and then realized I actually need to be able to just put #{condition} by itself in the puts and not use #{condition.chomp[8, condition.length]} but, I tried and found that I don't know how to adjust the code in the block above. Can someone help again? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
