问题 I was wondering if this behavior is intentional in the rvest package. When rvest sees the < character it stops reading the HTML. library(rvest) read_html("<html><title>under 30 years = < 30 years <title></html>") Prints: [1] <head>\n <title>under 30 = </title>\n</head> If this is intentional, is there a workaround? 回答1: Yes, it is normal for rvest because it's normal for html. See the w3schools HTML Entities page. < and > are reserved characters in html and their literal values have to be

问题 I've searched around stackoverflow and github but haven't seen a solution to this one. session <- read_html("http://www.whitepages.com") form1 <- html_form(session)[[1]] form2 <- set_values(form1, who = "john smith") submit_form(session, form) After the submit form line, I get the following: Submitting with '<unnamed>' Error: not compatible with STRSXP I've pieced together that this error is usually from mismatched types (strings and numeric, for example), but I can't tell where that might be

Yahoo login using rvest

帅比萌擦擦* 提交于 2020-01-01 07:07:14
问题 Recently, Yahoo changed their authentication mechanism to a two step one. So now, when I login to a yahoo site, I put in my username, and then it asks me to open my yahoo mobile app to give it a code. Alternatively, you can have it email or text you some other way around this. The result of this is that code that used to work to programatically login to Yahoo sites no longer works. This code just redirects to the login form. I've tried with and without a useragent string and with and without

I want to extract this data, leaving blank spaces or NAs for the ticket listings that do not contain these details. Since the original website requires the use of RSelenium, I have tried to
