Problems with dates?

ruby-talk
1

Hello. I'm fairly new to ruby, but hit a snag already. I'm writing a
small .rhtml file that will display a dynamic calendar. Its pretty
basic right now, consisting of a simple html table and some css. I
also wrote a Calendar class, included below, to assist with the task.
The problem is that apache mod_ruby segfaults! I've tried running via
the command-line with both erb and eruby. erb corrupts the output,
putting the dynamically generated stuff at the top, above the static
html code. eruby seems to handle it fine most of the time, but I have
seen errors from it as well, reporting an error at
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/date.rb line 305. I'm running apache 2.0.54, ruby
1.8.3, mod_ruby 1.2.4 on Gentoo Linux.

Thanks in advance,
Russ
