Subject: Re: Extracting instance variables from a block?

Wait! I got it!

Instead of keeping an object to store the binding in, I can store the 
Proc object's binding itself:

class Web
  def initialize
    @pages = {}
    @binding = nil
  end

  def page(regexp, &action)
    @pages[/^#{regexp}$/] = action
  end

  def render(template)
    print CGI.new.header('text/html')
    ERB.new(File.read(template)).run(@binding)
  end

  def run
    for regexp, action in @pages
      if ENV['REQUEST_URI'] =~ regexp
        @binding = action.binding
        action[*$~.to_a[1..-1]]
        return
      end
    end
  end
end

As you can see, once I found the matching page, I store its action's 
binding (by calling Proc#binding) into an instance variable (@binding), 
right before I actually call the action. Then, when running the ERB 
template, I use @binding for template's binding.

Thanks for your help, anyway!

Chris
