Hi Fred! The bit wich fetches the xml and parses it I have done a regular puts on that many times and i did 'var local' in debugger mode which displayed all local variables and then I got all the xml output. Before I did the debugging actually before it has been set. Im trying to do it after now as well but for some reason it has problems going in to debug mode. I do Rails s --debugger and it says that "Debugger enabled" but it doesnt get there. Do you have any feedback from the link a pasted with code on refactormycode.com? Is it something obviously wrong Im doing when declaring the variabe? Thanks in advance!
