Hi
I try to download the last 10 days quotes for NIFTY index data from yahoo
source,
but it gives me errors.

load.packages('quantmod')
endDate =Sys.Date()
startDate = as.Date(endDate-100, order="ymd")
nsei=getSymbols("^NSEI", src = 'yahoo', from = startDate,end=endDate)
 last(nsei,10)
===========================================
I used  Rcurl to get prices for "WIPRO"

library(RCurl)
fii =
getForm("http://nseindia.com/live_market/dynaContent/live_watch/get_quote/getHistoricalData.jsp",
        	symbol="WIPRO",
	fromDate="29-Oct-2012",
	toDate="06-Nov-2012",
	datePeriod="unselected",
	hiddDwnld="true",
        .opts = list(followlocation = TRUE,ssl.verifypeer = FALSE , verbose
= TRUE))
tbl<-read.csv(textConnection(fii),skip=2,header=TRUE)
tbl
But it also fails.
please guide me
thanks
veepsirtt
