fsockopen warning message

[ghgarcia]

I use fsockopen to test a user email address before updating my database. However if the address is not valid I get a warning message what I want is not to display the error message since I'm already looking for the address to be valid or not. The following is the code that I use.

[quote]if(checkEmail([email protected]) == FALSE)
{
  echo "E-mail entered is not valid.";
}
else
{
  echo "E-mail entered is valid.";
}
function checkEmail($email)
{
  if(eregi("^[a-zA-Z0-9_]+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+$]", $email))
  {
      return FALSE;
  }

  list($Username, $Domain) = split("@",$email);

  if(getmxrr($Domain, $MXHost))
  {
      return TRUE;
  }
  else
  {
      if(fsockopen($Domain, 25, $errno, $errstr, 30))
      {
        return TRUE;
      }
      else
      {
        return FALSE;
      }
  }
}
[/quote]

I want to display only my text not the warning.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

the magic at symbol -- which is PHP for "hush"

if(@fsockopen($Domain, 25, $errno, $errstr, 30))
