Hello Folks,

I'm working on trying to scrape my first web site and ran into a issue
because I'm really
don't know anything about regular expressions in R.

library(XML)
library(RCurl)

site <- "http://thisorthat.com/leader/month"
site.doc <- htmlParse(site, ?, xmlValue)


At the ?, I realize that I need to insert a regex command which will
decipher the contents of the web page...right?

First, I'm not sure if the contents of the site would be considered a table
and I'm also not sure how to disregard pictures
when scraping the site.



> sessionInfo()
R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13)
Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu (32-bit)


Please Help!
Abraham
