Fetch internal and external links count from a webpage with PHP - php

Question

Here is my code which is a partially based on a few different codes that you can find easily in various places if googled. I'm trying to count the internal and external links, all links and ( TO DO .nofollow ) links on a any webpage. This is what I have till now. Most of the results are correct, some generic calls gives me a weird results though, and I still need to do .nofollow and perhaps _blank as well. If you care to comment or add/change anything with bit of logic explanation then please do so, it will be very appreciated.
<?php
// transform to absolute path function...

if ($rel[0]=='#' || $rel[0]=='?') return $base.$rel;
