Subject: help me with Net::HTTP

please?
#from the api on ruby-doc.org. http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/ 
net/http/rdoc/classes/Net/HTTP.html

require 'net/http'
require 'uri'

     #1: Simple POST
     res = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('http://www.example.com/ 
search.cgi'),
                               {'q'=>'ruby', 'max'=>'50'})
     puts res.body


5: undefined method `post_form' for Net::HTTP:Class (NoMethodError)

am i missing something here? if it matters, my OS is Tiger... ruby  
1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [powerpc-darwin8.2.0]

alternatively, how to you make Mechanize work from inside rails? i'm  
trying to screen scrape a table from another site then load the  
information back on my page.

why does time fly so fast when i'm stuck on something?
