If you are trying to learn Ruby on Rails then railstutorial.org is
good and is free to use online.

Bascially looking for ruby in CGI to start with

When I was starting with Ruby, I found a number of one-script Ruby CGI 
examples for MySQL on Google. Where have you looked?

One other place to look is the Prototype + Script.aculo.us book by 
Christophe Portenueve. He didn't want his examples to be too 
Rails-centric, so he wrote a very simple Ruby CGI to handle all the 
back-end for the Ajax examples. That might have some good bits for you 
to pick at.
