[R] How to suppress errors generated by readHTMLTable?
Just this morning, I made suppressing these parser messages the default behavior for htmlParse() and that will apply to readHTMLTable() also. Until I release that (along with another potentially non-backward compatible change regarding character encoding), you can use readHTMLTable(htmlParse("index.html", error = function(...){})) i.e. parse the document yourself and hand it to readHTMLTable().
