Subject: string.scan failure when match works

Good Evening All,

I'm very new to coding of any kind, and I'm trying to learn Ruby by
working through some projects that are relevant to me. I'm working on a
small project to pull the headlines out of a news website for me. I'm
able to get match working just fine. I've tried switching to string.scan
to be able to iterate and nothing is returned. I can't figure out why
not, and would appreciate suggestions.

I realize the code is very ugly, and I apologize!

Thank you in advance,
CJ




page_string='junk'
open("http://www.scatoday.net/") {|f|
   page_string = f.read
  }
#THIS one works, one time
 #rezstring = /\/node\/[0-9]+.*title=".*">/.match(page_string)
#THESE Don't
#page_string.scan(/\/node\/[0-9]+.*title=".*">/)
#page_string.gsub(/\/node\/[0-9]+.*title=".*">/)
