Firstly you'll need to parse the page into a DOM. Assuming (for example) you have the page in a variable called $html, you can do:

        $document = new DOMDocument;
        $document->loadHTML($html);

If the document doesn't contain a http-equiv meta content-type tag, it will probably assume the document is in latin1 encoding (NOTE: Check this). You may need to add such a meta tag to have some pages processed correctly.

After you've got a DOM, you can quite easily just find all the anchors:

        $anchors = $document->getElementsByTagName("a");
        foreach ($anchors as $node) {
                $href = $node->getAttribute("href");
                // Assuming $href is set at this point, it will give you a Relative URL (or perhaps fragment e.g. #top)

Sadly there is no standard PHP function to calculate an absolute URL from a base and a relative URL - you'll have to write that yourself (Hint: It's not easy.)
