file_get_contents doesn't take a variable?

Hello, is there a way around the fact that file_get_contents doesn't take a variable? For example, the below doesn't work

 

$link =  "http://www.example.com";
$contents = file_get_contents($link);
echo $contents;

 

but

 

$contents = file_get_contents('http://www.example.com');
echo $contents;

does.

 

Please advise me on this. Thank you.

That's weird, I tried that ten times last night and it was giving me an error and now it works, I must have had something obvious slightly wrong.

 

I'm going to re-check a few things and see if I can get the error I was having to appear again.
