I use xtable to convert data.frames to html tables.
But when I use the print-command I always get the whole output printed
even if I just want to save the html table into a variable;
table <- print(xtable(CERAT), type="html")
How can I suppress that output is printed?
Perhaps by diverting it somewhere else? (after the example in xtable's help
page)
capture.output(print(tli.table, type="html"), file="HTout.html")
R is not an HTML editor, so it would seem less than intuitive to send it to a
character variable. It would not work to assign the value of capture.output
since that is an invisible NULL.
If that were true, capture.output() would be pretty useless. The returned
value is NULL if the file= argument is specified, otherwise it is the captured
output.
