Hi,
 
I need to download data from this site:
http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/agricultural/grain-and-oilseed/corn_quotes_globex.html
 
 
I tried with following set of codes:
 
 
library(RCurl) 
library(XML) 
 
aa <- getURL("http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/agricultural/grain-and-oilseed/corn_quotes_globex.html")
readHTMLTable(aa)
 
However not getting the required data.
 
Can someone please help me to point out how I can get that data?
 
Your help will be highly appreciated.
 
Thank you very much.
