[noob] Mechanize problem

ruby-talk
1

Hello,
  I can't run even the most trivial examples of Mechanize, neither on
Ubuntu nor in Leopard because I get the following error:

./mechanize.rb:4: uninitialized constant WWW (NameError)
       from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
`gem_original_require'
       from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
`require'
       from google.rb:2

I have installed mechanize with all its dependencies.
Can anybody give me a hint about what's wrong with my installation or
whatever am I doing wrong?
Thanks

r.

rename your script from mechanize.rb to something else. '.' is in your path so the require 'mechanize' you (should) have does nothing.

Bites us all now and then.
