I am trying to open and read output of php script it looks like: domain.com/scripts/script.php?assetid=xxxxx&checksum=yyyy when I open this in any browser it works fine. So I tried to use open-uri gem to get output - returns code 200 no output. I tried 

Net::HTTP.post_form('domain.com/scripts/script.php', {'assetid'=>'xxxxx', 'checksum'=>'yyyy'})

without desired output. Can you help me choose correct way to open and parse this uri ?

If you are getting 200, you are getting your result.

uri = URI('http://example.com/index.html')
params = { :limit => 10, :page => 3 }
uri.query = URI.encode_www_form(params)

res = Net::HTTP.get_response(uri)
puts res.body if res.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)

This straight from ruby documentation

If you are doing web scraping, you will want to use the ruby gemMechanize.
