Default Purpose of @ in php
Hi All,

I have been scouring the web for reasons why some functions in x-cart are called within PHP by a preceeding @. i.e.

Code:
#
# Include webmaster mode
#
if (!@include_once("../include/webmaster.php"))
	@include_once("./include/webmaster.php");

Does anyone know the reason for this and its significance within PHP.

Phil.
