Subject: Re: Simple, simple socket question

This works on my system (Just brings back 128 bytes HTTP header). (Note 
the extra '\n'...

...
# Strings changed from single quotes to double quotes.
# (As per last poster's suggestion)

require 'socket'

mySock = TCPSocket::new("www.google.com", 80)
mySock.write("GET / HTTP/1.1\n")
mySock.write("Host: www.google.com\n")
mySock.write("\n\n") # extra "\n" added.

data = mySock.recv(128)
mySock.close
puts data
...

Cheers

John
