I seem to have found the problem. This bit of .rhtml file reproduces it on
my setup (ie5, apache, erb 0.6.1):
<html>
<BODY>
<%

120.times {
print "hello. "
}

%>
</BODY>
</html>

The output is:
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.
hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. </h

But if I put a load of carrage returns on the end of my .rhtml file it gets
rid of this problem. Which leads me to think that its a problem with eruby
not sending the right 'content-length'. Anyone know if this is fixed the the
current release? (0.9.6, i think)

Regarding my other problem of compling eruby (or any ruby related stuff),
can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this in win9x? I've got vc++6,
but if its easier with gcc....

thanks,
simon.
