Hi,
I'm trying to get a list of addresses from
http://tatts.com/racing/outletsearch based on a list of postcodes (zip
codes) and states. For example, I'm looking for State = 'Northern
Territory' and Postcode = '0800'. The list I'm working off is about 500
long so I was hoping to find a way to script this in R.
I regularly us readLines and the XML library to scrape data but had no luck
finding a solution using these methods. After some serious Googling it
seems to me RHTMLForms is the way to go. I have gone through every example
I can find and tried to apply it to my problem but with no success. I would
be happy to provide more detail about the errors I'm getting if that would
help, the problem is I have been getting quite a variation of errors and
I'm not sure what would be appropriate to post.
I don't know if I'm missing something simple or whether I'm trying to wrong
approach. I would greatly appreciate any direction anyone may be able to
give me.
I'm using R 2.13.1 on Windows 7 6.1.
Cheers,
Jai Vaughan
