Hmmm, interesting. This is new to me and I'm not too sure how to get to the bottom of it. All of your package versions which Could you try closing an opening RStudio, and then run the following before loading any other package?

I get exactly the same error

Thanks - I'm struggling to reproduce this.
And what happens with the following?

Not sure if I can add screen grabs, but I get the same error for all. The reason I wanted to do the screen grab is because I wasn’t sure the (right here)-----^ Pointing at the ‘h’ in html was showing. |
Thank you. Does this url work in your browser? |
Hi Sebastian, yes, at least I think so. It brings up a page with what looks like comma delimited data for whole bunch of indicators broken down by deprivation decile, geography etc. And that's in Chrome. In IE it prompts to save a file with suffix ".json" which I sort of understand is a file type. |

Huge can of worms! |
I'm literally the first person to use R in my organisation. I did wonder if it was something to do with access privileges, or the way web access is configured. I don't know if a firewall or anything would effect this. |

Thank you. Ok - I don't understand this error, but I can now replicate your original error. I'll get back to you about that soon hopefully, and then see what we can do about this one! |

fingertips_stats()
