parse an HTML page with verbose error message (using XML)
I'm using the function htmlParse() in the XML package, and I need a
little bit help on error handling while parsing an HTML page. So far I
can use either the default way:
# error = xmlErrorCumulator(), by default
library(XML)
doc = htmlParse("http://www.public.iastate.edu/~pdixon/stat500/")
# the error message is:
# htmlParseStartTag: invalid element name
or the tryCatch()
