As an extension on my previous image problem I can't even successfully
download images from a URL location. I though tthe following simple GET
request along with writing the result to a file would work but it mangles
the image and makes it unreadable.
Net::HTTP.start("www.example.com") do |http|
resp = http.get("/images/logo.gif")
outfile = open("C:/logo.gif", "w")
outfile.write(resp.body)
outfile.close
end
Have I done something wrong here? Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
Sorry for being a pain but I've looked in the mailing list and various
source files but none seem to be shedding any light so I'd be very grateful
for your input.
This is done in order to ensure that if there's an exception after you open the file (ferinstance, writing when the disk is full, or in a place you don't have write permissions), that the file is still closed. You could do the exception handling yourself, of course, but this is a convenient concise way of doing things.
Hope that helps,
matthew smillie.

As you're running on Windows, you need to open the file in binary
mode, ie. open("C:/logo.gif", "wb").

Are you on Windows? Try
outfile = open("C:/logo.gif", "wb")
You need to open the file in `binary' mode to make it not automatically translate line endings.
