Sorry about not including data. Its quite a large dataset.

Theres another 10 columns of that and another 160+ rows
The first column are x-axis labels hence I didn't load them ([,-1])
First row is the y axis values.
Other values are z-axis values, these range between 0 and 2.

I couldn't get it to work, I'm reasonably new to R. I guess the question is 
what values should be in place of x and in your code the two 30 numbers. I had 
a look through the help to no avail.

(also sorry about posting to the wrong list - if it makes it any better I am on 
a Macbook pro)

Thanks, James
