I am trying to parse a webpage using the htmlParse command in XML package as follows:
library(XML) u = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population"; doc = htmlParse(u) I get the following error: Error in htmlParse(u) : error in creating parser for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population I am using a R 2.13.1 (32 bit version) on a 64 bit Windows. (I tried installing it in 64 bit version of R but getting an error that the previous version cannot be removed) Can someone please help with how to resolve this issue? Thank you.
