It would be even better if you'd actually read them. :-/

What's the purpose of the "begin-end", by the way? This is not Pascal. A 
"begin-end" block only makes sense in combination with "rescue" or 
"ensure". Re-opening the file for every single row also doesn't really 
make sense. Either open the file *before* the loop or collect the row 
strings and then write them all at once.

File.open("archive.html", "a") do |file|
  # I'm sure there's a better method for this, something like "each_row"
  n_rows.times do
    file << rs.fetch_row.to_s.delete('[]",')
    file.puts '<br>'
  end
end
