Hi, I am trying to use scrubyt for web scraping. But I get error right  
in the beginning when I ‘require’ the ‘scrubyt’ gem. I am using Ruby  
version 1.8.6 on Windows.

## My sample code is like this:

require ‘rubygems’  
require ‘scrubyt’

google\_data = Scrubyt::Extractor.define do  
fetch ‘[Google](http://www.google.com/ncr)’  
fill\_textfield ‘q’, ‘ruby’  
submit

link “Ruby P.ming Language” do  
url “href”, :type =\> :attribute  
end  
next\_page “Next”, :limit =\> 2  
end

## puts google\_data.to\_xml

I have all the required gems installed with proper version numbers.  
The list is as follows:
