    There are couple of options depending upon your usecase.

    • Nokogiri. Here is the RailsCast that will get you started.
    • Mechanize is built on top of Nokogiri. See the Mechanize RailsCast.
    • Screen Scraping with ScrAPI and the ScrAPI RailsCast.
    • Hpricot.

    I have used combination of Nokogiri and Mechanize for few of my projects and I think they are good options.
