Reference - What does this symbol mean in PHP?
Found an image upload script on the net and I'm just modifying it to my needs. It contains lines like the one below that begins with an @ symbol. I'm more of a javascript/jQuery guy so can someone explain what this '@' syntax is all about please?
@move_uploaded_file($_FILES[$fieldname]['tmp_name'], $uploadFilename)
or error('receiving directory insuffiecient permission', $uploadForm);
Please note I'm not asking what the above lines do, just about the functionality of the @ symbol
