Subject: Re: Nokogiri - Data output not as expected

Alternative:

require 'nokogiri'
require 'open-uri'
require 'spreadsheet'

#Create the Spreadsheet
Spreadsheet.client_encoding = 'UTF-8'
book = Spreadsheet::Workbook.new

sheet1 = book.create_worksheet
sheet1.name = 'My First Worksheet'

lines = []

#Specify our URI
%w[
  http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/S56CA/#sp...
].each do |url|

  doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(url))

  lines <<  doc.css('div#specifications div#spec-area ul.product-spec 
li').map(&:text)

end

lines.flatten!

lines.each_with_index do |line, idx|
sheet1.row(idx).push line
end

book.write('C:/Users/Barry/Desktop/output.xls')
