No, they don't. Ask that question in one of the web authoring groups.

I have been trying to learn Ruby and the best tutorial I have used is on
www.pine.fm. Click on the Programming link and Chris will guide you through
the basic syntax. A deeper understanding comes from books such as "Ruby in a
Nutshell" by Yukihiro Matsumoto.

PHP seems to be the language of choice for system administrators and is a
scripting language, I understand, and is the most powerful of the two. Learn
a little of one and practice, practice, practice.
