A small reproducible example, as requested bythe posting guide, would
have been very helpful here (if you provide one, use ?dput to provide
the data). You have also not told us what you mean by "unsuccessful,"
so we are left to guess what sort of problems you experienced. "None
work" is completely useless to help diagnose the problem. This means
we waste time going back and forth trying to elucidate what you mean.
Please consider these things if/when you post in future.
In any case, my guess is that param is numeric and it should be a
factor, so, e.g.
bwplot(quant ~ factor(param) | era, data=mg.d, main='Dissolved
Magnesium', ylab='Concentration (mg/L)')
might be what you want. But of course, it may be completely wrong.
Cheers,
Bert
