Subject: How extract data from a web site?

Hi,

I would like to use Ruby to read the content of a web site, and then
extract certain data from it. The site is machine generated so the
format doesnt' change, but unfortunately it is far from being valid
XHTML or similar.

What would be the easiest way to get there? I guess I need some kind of
HTML parser, or? How to I read a web site into Ruby in the first place?

Ingo
