PHP help, please

Question

I have developed a broken link checker that works great, unless the URLs don't have the base href in them.
For example:
If the links are ...href="http://www.somesite.com/somepage.html"... is works great
But if they are ...href="somepage.html"..., ...href="/somepage.html"..., or...href="./somepage.html"... it ignors them

Here's the problem code:
===========================================
 $matches = array();
  preg_match_all("|href\=\"?'?`?([[:alnum:]:?=&@/;._-]+)\"?'?`?|i",  $html, $matches);
  $links = array();
  $ret = $matches[1];
  for($i=0;isset($ret[$i]);$i++) {
     if(preg_match("|^http://(.*)|i", $ret[ $i])) {
         $links[] = $ret[$i];
     } elseif(preg_match("|^(.*)|i", $ret[$i])) {
         $links[] = "http://".$info["host"]."". $ret[$i];
     }
  }
  return $links;
}
==============================================
I thought
} elseif(preg_match("|^(.*)|i", $ret[$i])) {
$links[] = "http://".$info["host"]."". $ret[$i];
would have taken care if it. Please help!
Many Thanks.

The google documentation says that ports 465 or 587 should be used for connections to the SMTP server. It seems that Mail_smtp uses 25 by default. Try an explicit value of 465 or 587 with the 'port' parameter

$smtp = Mail::factory(
    'smtp',
    array('host' => $host,
          'port' => 465,     // explicit port 465 or 587
          'auth' => true,
          'username' => $username,
          'password' => $password),
);
