rvest package - Is it possible for html_text() to store an NA value if it does not find an attribute?

问题 As the title states, I'm curious if it is possible for the html_text() function from the rvest package to store an NA value if it is not able to find an attribute on a specific page. I'm currently running a scrape over 199 pages (which works fine; tested on a few variables already). Currently, when I search for a value that is only present on a some (136) of the 199 pages, html_text() is only returning a vector of 136 strings. This is not useful because without NA s I am unable to determine

rvest table scraping including links

由 元气小坏坏 提交于 2019-12-10 11:33:38

Looking at the html_table() function description, I didn't find any options of including those. Is there another package or way to do this? library("rvest") url <- "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Simpsons_episodes" simp <- url %>% html() %>% html_nodes(xpath='//*[@id="mw-content-text"]/table[3
