PHP Simple html dom parser with array links - file_get_contents error

Question

I have a form with textarea (links one per line):

<textarea class="form-control" rows="10" name="links" id="links"></textarea>

and the php code:

function scrape($link) {
  $html = file_get_html("$link");
........
}

$links = $_POST["links"];
$lines = explode("\n", $links);

foreach($lines as $line){
  scrape($line);
}

Error: Warning: file_get_contents(site.com): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found

failed to open stream

I think that the problem is with quotes.All links work.

You can open a website via file_get_contents(); however, you need to provide the full URL to achieve that, e.g. : http://www.example.com. However, you may encouter problems with some pages, in which cases you could use CURL or StreamSockets to get (remote) websites.

Edit : Additionally, you should note that some OSes treat \r\n as what others "think" is a simple \n. You may try the script out with the former one; it proved to work on my Windows machine.
