Hi,
I am trying to submit a form to the EXPASY protscale server (
http://www.expasy.ch/tools/protscale.html). I am using the RCurl package and
the postForm function available in it. I have extracted the variables for
the form from the HTML source page. According to the syntax of postForm, I
just need to mention the url and assign values to the input mentioned in the
HTML code.
The code that I am using is:
postForm("http://www.expasy.ch/tools/protscale.html";,
"sequence" = "
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
scale = "Molecular weight",
window = "5",
weight_edges = "100",
weight_var = "linear",
norm = "no",
submit = "Submit"), .checkparams = TRUE)
the constant error that I get is:
Error in postForm("http://www.expasy.ch/tools/protscale.html";, .params =
list(sequence = "not", : STRING_ELT() can only be applied to a 'character
vector', not a 'logical'
Is there any other way to submit an HTML form in R ?
Thanks for the help
Regards
Sunando
