The @ - sign?

[Erik-NA]

What does the @ mean?

Example:

@include_once("DB.php");
@$obj =& new classname;

When you add @ to the start of a line of code it supresses all errors that would be generated by the code. For example:

<? @$foo = mysql_fetch_array($nonexistant_variable); ?>

would return nothing, while

<? $foo = mysql_fetch_array($nonexistant_variable); ?>

would generate an error.

Hope that helps 🙂

I'm not sure if you would but the @ before the offending function or the whole line.

eg:
<? @$foo = mysql_fetch_array($nonexistant_variable); ?>

or

<? $foo = @mysql_fetch_array($nonexistant_variable); ?>

I've always used it next to the function I want to suppress errors from but the latter should work though.
