The ones in the code above did not work for me. These are for the python version of the script, but I bet you're all able to copy them into the Ruby code: self.uid= int(re.match(""".+Presence\("(\d+)""", body, re.S).group(1)) print "ID="+`self.uid` self.channel= re.match(""".+channel(\d+)""", body, re.S).group(1) print "Channel="+self.channel self.post_form_id = re.match(""".+<input type="hidden" id="post_form_id" name="post_form_id" value="([^"]+).+""", body, re.S).group(1) print "FormID="+self.post_form_id For what it’s worth, here are the patterns which seem to work okay right now.
