I have a script all done now and everything has been debugged and it works, except for the last hurdle. This script grabs pertinent information on bank web sites, takes that data and uses it to populate a template and then it's all posted to Wordpress - BUT I get an error because the file_get_contents function fails taking each url from the Array.

I've var_dumped the array and all the URLS are there in the [0] key, so this is what I tried.

• master data is the scraped URL source the script uses

• urlscrape_array is the collection of URLS

  $master_data = file_get_contents($urlscrape_array[0]);

When I run the script using a URL like below it works beautifully every time;

   $master_data = file_get_contents("http://www.somesite/somepage.html");

This is the error I get when I try to use the first example'

   Warning: file_get_contents() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given    in /home3/path/public_html/mysite.com/boise_project/scriptmainpage.php on line 13

As requested here is a sample of the var_dump on $urlscrape_array[0]

  array(504) { [0]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-3178.html" [1]=> string(54) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-16.html" [2]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-3202.html" [3]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-4324.html" [4]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-4777.html" [5]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-5140.html" [6]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-5220.html" [7]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-9205.html" [8]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-3251.html" [9]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/somepage-3323.html" [10]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/some-page-3797.html" [11]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/some-page-4145.html" [12]=> string(56) "http://www.somepage.com/some-page-3191.html" [13]=> string(55) "http://www.somepage.com/some-page-329.html" [14]=> string(56) etc....

HERE IS THE CODE I USED TO CREATE THE ARRAY ABOVE;

       $urlscrape_data = file_get_contents('http://www.bdbud.com/boise_project/boise-urls.htm');
       preg_match_all('~http\:\/\/www.creditunionsonline.com\/credit\-union\-\d{1,4}?\.html~',   $urlscrape_data, $urlscrape_matches);

$urlscrape_array = $urlscrape_matches;
