Subject: Webrick, erb, and .rhtml

I am trying to get a basic Webrick server running to serve up .rhtml
files on a WinXP machine.  I saw that you need to install erb to get
this to work (BTW, the erb link on the Webrick site is broken), so I
installed erb 2.0.4.

I startup a Webrick server using:

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require 'webrick'
include WEBrick

s = HTTPServer.new( :Port=> 2000 )

## mount subdirectories
s.mount("/~test",
        HTTPServlet::FileHandler, "c:\\documents and
settings\\user\\desktop\\test",
        true)  #<= allow to show directory index.

trap("INT"){ s.shutdown }
s.start


Serving up html works fine.  However, serving up .rhtml does not work.
 If I visit my test.rhtml, whose contents are:

<html><head></head><body>
testing, 1234
<%
10.times{ |i| puts i } 
%>
</body></html>

All I get as output on my browser is "testing, 1234", whose source looks like
<html><head></head><body>
testing, 1234
</body></html>

At the command prompt, if I ruby "erb test.rhtml" I get:

0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
testing, 1234


</body>
</html>

Which is obviously incorrect.  What am I doing wrong here? I am using
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29), and erb 2.0.4.
