I have very basic script that should load html of given website and print out all links it finds in code, its just an example, however I cant get it working and cant figure out why. code:

<?php
$html=file_get_html("http://www.google.com/");
foreach($html->find("a") as $element)
echo $element->href . '<br>';
?>

It returns blank page, $html is just empty I found it might be problem of openssl but I have openssl enabled and its not working anyway. I use apache 2.2.14 on Ubuntu and php 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.18 is version I have currently installed. Any ideas? Thanks.

You need to add/require/whatever your `SimpleHTMLDomParser` – kero Mar 31 '14 at 20:17
It would not matter. Check if the HTML is valid...? – Raphioly-San Mar 31 '14 at 20:18

`file_get_html` isn't a built-in PHP function. – gen_Eric Mar 31 '14 at 20:20
It looks similar to http://stackoverflow.com/a/18668562/1519058 – Enissay Mar 31 '14 at 20:34
@JohnConde This isn't a duplicate because Ruli does not see an error, just a blank return. – JasonMArcher Mar 31 '14 at 23:44
