 What do you want to say with "doesn't work" ?

 This script give the right output

pigeon% ruby
require 'cgi'
cgi = CGI.new("html3")
cgi.out{
        cgi.html{
                cgi.head{ "\n"+cgi.title{"This is a ruby test"} } +
                cgi.body{ "\n"+cgi.h1{ "A Test ruby page" } +
                        cgi.br +
                        cgi.img("/cgi-bin/fills.rb") }
        }
}

 The script "/cgi-bin/fills.rb" must just send as first line 
 "Content-Type: image/gif\n\n" before the output of the image
