Hallo, I am trying to import a website and structure it from within R:
The following code: data <- scan(file='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Recentchanges',what='character') results in the error: Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open: HTTP status was '403 Forbidden' in: file(file, "r") It seems that the error is connected to the UTF-8-format of wikipedia, since the following line works: data <- scan(file='http://www.google.de',what='character') I am looking forward to your answers. Greetings Marc Schwenzer ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
