Something Broke...

I had students using the IDEAR tool two weeks ago without any real problems, but this week I had a different student download the whole package and had issues getting the code to run even on the sample data.
One: Iine 31 of the IDEAR.rmd there's a floating "css: style.css" that seems to stop the r-markdown from actually running.
After commenting it out we seemed to be able to get it running, though we were still having version of R and pandoc issues (had to install the newest version for it to work).
I'd strongly encourage you to include a "version check" of R (and probably all the packages too). Without that, there's some issues with checking for specific PACKAGES, because some required packages can't be installed in older versions of R.
Thanks for reporting the issue. The "css:style.css" issue was due to garbled text introduced when we applied hotfix; now it is fixed. In the IDEAR R readme, we recommended using R 3.3.1 or 3.3.2. We will make improvement in later releases to make package installation experience smoother.
