There is a website that populates a table with athlete scores during a competition. I would like to be able to extract those scores from the website and place them into a data frame if this is possible. The website is at the link below:

http://games.crossfit.com/leaderboard

One complication is that one must manually click through multiple pages as the table only populates a few hundred rows on one web page. In looking at the source code of the website, I think I can go to here and maybe grab scores, but I am not sure if R can someone read them in from this and populate a data frame and subsequently grab data from every page.

I have not done anything like this before, and so any guidance is appreciated.


Thank you

Harold
