hi,
it seems Mechanize isn't working well with relative URLs -
the following lines:
agent = WWW::Mechanize.new { |a| a.log = Logger.new("mech.log") }
article = agent.get('/test.html')
responded with the following error:
c:/instantrails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mechanize-0.4.3/lib/mechanize.rb:183:in
`to_absolute_uri'
c:/instantrails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mechanize-0.4.3/lib/mechanize.rb:114:in
`get'

Where have you told it what host to look at?

agent.get('http://google.com')
#=> #<WWW::Page:0x2de2ae8 ...
agent.get('/reader')
#=> #<WWW::Page:0x2de2ae8 ...
Otherwise, how would agnet know which host to get '/test.html' from?

You can see a Mechanize example here:
