Hi

I have been looking for a function that finds links on a web page, i have used get_meta_tags() and file_get_contents() to get data off of a web page and wondered if there was something similar to get URLs. If not what would be simple and logical way to get URLs off a page?

I think that the only way to do this is to (a) extract all link (<A>) tags from the document, and (b) extract URLs from their 'href' parameters. This can be done either by using regular expressions or by using string functions.

However, the above approach will not allow you to extract 'pseudo-links', such as javascript OnClick handlers. It's also a good idea to extract values of 'action' parameters of a <FORM> tags.

With best wishes,
