"Tables" functions returning errors #3

I've just installed nhanesA, and encountered errors trying to follow the vignette: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nhanesA/vignettes/Introducing_nhanesA.html

In particular: 

> nhanesTables('EXAM', 2005)
Error in `[.data.frame`(df, , c("Data.File.Name", "Data.File.Description")) : 
  undefined columns selected
> nhanesTableVars('EXAM', 'BMX_D')
Error in nhanesTableVars("EXAM", "BMX_D") : 
  Table BMX_D not present in the EXAM survey

However, bmx_d <- nhanes('BMX_D') appears to be working as expected.

There has been a revision to the NHANES website and some of the HTML has changed. I expect to have this resolved within the next couple days.

Revised package (nhanesA 0.6.4.1) is now up on CRAN. Am closing this ticket, but will continue to investigate as some nhanesA functions (especially nhanesSearch) are having performance issues with the new NHANES website.
