Is there an error with nokogiri and title recent windows build of ruby
1.9.2-p0?

I have installed ruby and nokogiri gem. I was following the railscast

As I am just learning things I thought I would start by running the
script from the tutorial.

url = "Walmart.com?

doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(url))
puts doc.at_css("title").text
doc.css(".item").each do |item|
  title = item.at_css(".prodLink").text
  price = item.at_css(".PriceCompare .BodyS, .PriceXLBold").text[/\
$[0-9\.]+/]
  puts "#{title} - #{price}"
  puts item.at_css(".prodLink")[:href]
end

# lib/tasks/product_prices.rake
desc "Fetch product prices"
task :fetch_prices => :environment do
  require 'nokogiri'
  require 'open-uri'

  Product.find_all_by_price(nil).each do |product|
    url = "Walmart.com?
search_constraint=0&ic=48_0&search_query=#{CGI.escape(product.name)}
&Find.x=0&Find.y=0&Find=Find"
    doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(url))
    price = doc.at_css(".PriceCompare .BodyS, .PriceXLBold").text[/
[0-9\.]+/]
    product.update_attribute(:price, price)
  end
end

I keep getting this error.

Nobody else having issues with this? Any easy way to fix. I have
updated gems and made sure all dependencies are covered but no go.
Should I go back to 1.9.1 or 1.8.9 ro get compatibility?

You'd be much better off bringing this up on the nokogiri mailing list or filing a ticket in their issue tracker. This mailing list is not good for specific third party library technical support.

Actually I have tested on 1.9.2, 1.9.1 & 1.8.7 and didn't work with
railscast script. Must be something I am doing this end, Newbie error.
