I wrote the following html table
ID X Y Depth P
<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoPlainText">1046 256857 2632323 13 2.8</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">1054 257090 2632039 13 1.1</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">1057 257099 2631981 13 2.6</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">1058 257071 2632004 9 2.1</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">1060 257173 2632004 13 4</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">1089 257194 2631660 13 14.1</p>
</div>
which looks like this to the readers of a webpage
ID X Y Depth P
1046 256857 2632323 13 2.8
1054 257090 2632039 13 1.1
1057 257099 2631981 13 2.6
1058 257071 2632004 9 2.1
1060 257173 2632004 13 4
1089 257194 2631660 13 14.1
I am looking for the easiest way to read the table using R directly from the webpage. I am using:
library(RCurl)
library(XML)
d<-readHTMLTable(getURL('https://wordpresswebsiteaddress/data/') )
it does read it but gives me a whole bunch of other things when only "getURL" is used !! but when "readHTMLtable" is used on the top I only get the following:
> d
named list()
Am I missing something? Is there an easy way to read the table? thanks!
