I am trying to write a ruby script which includes both the ‘RubyfulSoup’
gem for HTML scouring, and the rails environment so I can access the
database easily. I get the following error when trying to run this
script.
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.1/lib/action_view/helpers/…/…/action_controller/vendor/html-scanner/html/node.rb:276:
superclass mismatch for class Tag (TypeError)

I’ve distilled the offending code down to 3 lines; here are the contents
of my scripts/spider/conflict.rb:
require ‘rubyful_soup’
RAILS_ENV = ‘development’
require File.dirname(FILE) + ‘/…/…/config/environment’
It appears there are two Tag classes. How do I resolve this conflict?
Cheers,
