I am running ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] on winXp SP2+ and
using ruby to do a bunch of website formatting maintenance and general
tidying up. The last step is to send the changed files to the site.
All of the files end up truncated! the code bloc I am using is: (names
and places changed to protect the innocent)

if changed != {}
print "Send to web site? [Y,n]"
a = $stdin.gets.chomp
if a =~ /^y.*/i || a == ''
ftp = Net::FTP.new('website.place')
ftp.login('name','password')
ftp.chdir('www/fileplace')
changed.each_key {|f|
print f
ftp.puttextfile(f)
puts ": " + ftp.size(f).to_s + " of #{changed[f]}"
}
ftp.close
end
end

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I changed "ftp.puttextfile(f)" to "ftp.putbinaryfile(f,f,1024)"
even though they are text files, and the transfer works!

Thanks
