Hi,  
When I run the following piece of code;  
@gmail\_xml = Blackbook.get :username =\> ‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’, :password  
=\> ‘pwd’, :as =\> :xml

Hotmail and yahoo work fine. But with gmail I get the following error:

Nokogiri::CSS::SyntaxError in ItemsController#index

unexpected ‘.’ after ‘.’

RAILS\_ROOT: C:/Documents and  
Settings/KivancG.DDM/Desktop/jan22nd/Work/sources/wl  
Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace

C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/nokogiri-1.1.1-x86-mswin32-60/lib/nokogiri/css/parser.rb:60:in  
`on_error' racc/parser.rb:99:in`\_racc\_do\_parse\_c’  
racc/parser.rb:99:in ` __send__' racc/parser.rb:99:in`do\_parse’  
app/controllers/items\_controller.rb:9:in `index’

Any help would really be appreciated. I couldnot see anyone who got the  
same error.

Hey,

I used Contacts (GMail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Facebook, etc) and it worked  
like a charm:

```
  . gem install json-1.1.1-mswin32.gem
  . gem install contacts

```

Cheers, Sazima

I actually got this exact same error with gmail. I was wondering if you  
ever found a solution?
