Dan,
that ruby tutorial looks really great so far.
I picked up a few things just looking at it.
Can you put it in a downloadable zip?
Of course I'll be looking for the rest.
Thanks
Dee A. Jacobs

You might be interested in this tutorial:

It’s a work in progress, but it’s quite useful already.
In particular, it covers problems such as the one you just described.
