Hi all,
I'm looking for a simple webserver that could handle basic requests
(mostly from a localhost) outputing html files. It should also be able
to get the input from forms. Rails seems too powerful to perform such
a simple class.
Sorry if this sounds confusing. I'm a newcomer to the ruby language.

Look into WEBrick / GServer.

Rails isn't a web server.
Apache is a web server.
Rails is (like any web framework) a glorified CGI program.
There is Merb, and Camping, and Ruby does have a CGI class...

#!/bin/env ruby
require 'webrick'
include WEBrick
s = HTTPServer.new(
:Port => 2000,
:DocumentRoot => Dir::pwd
)
trap("INT"){ s.shutdown }
s.start
Run that in a directory with html files. That will serve them up for
ya, then go from there.
If you want a small mvc pattern, then check out camping. A little
more in-depth but smaller than rails is merb. I prefer merb myself.

Also look at Nitro and Ramaze, both of which make it quite simple to develop Web sites using a range of techniques, from all-in-one-file to full-blown MVC, with or without a database.

Webrick seems to be what I'm looking for. However I couldn't find any
tutorial/sample or documentation for it. Is there any sample avaliable
on the web?
