I have a quick question about the browseURL function. When I use the function in a
UNIX environment, I have to use two sets of quotations if I have the & symbol in the
URL. For Windows I only need to use the first set. For example, on Windows:
browseURL("http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Bioconductor&ei=UTF-8&fr=fp-tab-web-t&n=20&fl=0&x=wrt";)
will call up the appropriate website. However, if I use the same command under UNIX,
the website will be truncated after the first &, but the call will work if I use:
browseURL("'http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Bioconductor&ei=UTF-8&fr=fp-tab-web-t&n=20&fl=0&x=wrt'")
Where I have added single quotes around the URL.Is there any quick method for solving
this problem? Thank you very much for your help.
