Thanks for your quick reply.
I am using the "out of the box" web data source. When I add my URL the following code is added as a source.
= Web.Page(Web.Contents("http://www.bom.gov.au/tas/observations/tasall.shtml"))If I remove the "Web.Page()" and leave the Web.Contents, I am shown an icon of the website and my only option is to click to expands the data, which regenerates the Web.Page() wrapper.
