[R] import text-records and set the fields in a table

[mari681]

hi! 
I apologize in advance if this is a newbie dumm question, but I really can't
figure it ou.

I have lists of sumeric and character data on some URLs, which look like
this:

<photo id="5876248819" owner="13716719 at N04" secret="faf9bb7f52"
server="5264" farm="6" title="our rose garden" ispublic="1" isfriend="0"
isfamily="0" tags="flowers plants green rose yellow garden nikon" />
    
<photo id="5876248123" owner="15023277 at N02" secret="e7b8037738"
server="5192" farm="6" title="Blue, red, yellow, green" ispublic="1"
isfriend="0" isfamily="0" tags="blue red green grass yellow truck amusement
fair fete royalmail van ldv 2011 birstall" />

<photo id="5876786530" owner="58185891 at N00" secret="54ec727b3d"
server="5065" farm="6" title="Boathko" ispublic="1" isfriend="0"
isfamily="0" tags="blue abstract black yellow boat seaside paint decay
peelingpaint stives paintedwood stripesstripy" />

...

I have to work with some fields of each record, so I'd need to see this data
as a table, but I managed to import it into R only in html format, and not
with read.table or something like that, because there are many symbols that
R doesn't seem to like. 

Any suggestion for importing this data in another way, or forcing the fields
(Photo id, owner, secret...) in a table with something like a character
pattern matching?

Thank you in advance!!
Mari
