Is there a web gadget or service or some open source solution for doing this?
Or do people just hand-code this in the HTML?
I need to add some Ruby and Python code to a web page.

I think Stack Overflow uses this or something very much like it: http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/

If you're using the Vim editor, its pretty simple. Just open the code in a GVIM window and save it as an HTML file (Save As.., etc).. it will do all the work for you creating an HTML file that preserves syntax highlighting.
EDIT: Its actually "Convert to HTML" on the Syntax menu. (http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Pasting_code_with_syntax_coloring_in_emails)

SyntaxHighlighter 2.0 was recently released here is a basic snippit to get you started:
<head> <script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/scripts/shCore.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/scripts/shBrushPython.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/scripts/shBrushRuby.js"></script> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/css/shCore.css"/> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/css/shThemeDefault.css"/> <script type="text/javascript"> SyntaxHighlighter.config.clipboardSwf = 'path/to/scripts/clipboard.swf'; SyntaxHighlighter.all(); </script> </head> <pre class="brush: python;"> ... code ... </pre> <pre class="brush: ruby;"> ... code ... </pre> -
I think this site uses prettify.

I think you're looking for something like GeSHi - The generic syntax highlighter. I've had a lot of success with this in the past, GeSHi supports a TON of languages. Not only is this useful for your own syntax highlighting on your web site, but I use the source files because they contain all of the language keywords (I need them for a text-editor I'm working on with syntax highlighting). It's been a godsend.
If you specifically need just Ruby and Python highlighting, you may want to check out NetBeans. It has a feature to output your source code to an HTML page while keeping all of the coloured syntax.
Bryan Locke : Cool. Didn't know NetBeans had that. That's perfect. Thanks.
