Re: org-babel strange html print in R

[Jeremie Juste <jeremiejuste@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Thanks for the input.
I didn't see the full mail of stardiviner for some reason.

:results value html  in the following code generates an error for me.
(Org mode version 9.2.3,R version 3.6.2).
but :results value output the "html" in an org-table format

#+begin_src R :results value html
library(xtable)
x <- rnorm(100)
y <- x + rnorm(100)
print(xtable(summary(lm(y ~ x))),type="html")
#+end_src

Best regards,
Jeremie
