Hello,
I am trying to use R to download a bunch of .csv  files such as:

http://biocache.ala.org.au/ws/occurrences/download?q=Banksia+ericifolia

I have tried the following and neither work:

a<- getURL("
http://biocache.ala.org.au/ws/occurrences/download?q=Banksia+ericifolia";)

Error in curlPerform(curl = curl, .opts = opts, .encoding = .encoding) :
  embedded nul in string:
and

a<-httpPOST("
http://biocache.ala.org.au/ws/occurrences/download?q=Banksia+ericifolia";)

Error: Internal Server Error


Any help would be appreciated.
