URL/Link Extracting

Recommended Posts

Hi, anyone point me in the right direction of extracting a list of URLs/Links of an external page (such as extracting a page of links from google which are related to a keyword)? I can then manipulate this data into my database?

Just want to extract links from a page which I could specify and maybe put the urls into an array so I could then play with?

Many thanks for any help.

With regular expressions,

Heres my crappy attempt at regex :D

[code]<?php

function GetLinks($url)
{
$aOut = array();
preg_match_all("/http:\/\/?[^ ][^\"][^'][^<][^>]+/i", file_get_contents($url), $aOut, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);

print_r($aOut);

}

echo "<pre>";
GetLinks("http://google.com.au");
echo "</pre>";

?>[/code]

Hey, its a start ;)
