The @ sign suppresses errors, so that if the DB failed to connect, it wouldn't give out any help to any would-be attackers.
Though I prefer error_reporting(0); to suppress all error messages (except my own) once the code is fully tested.

Right, thanks Bob. I was about to reply to that. the @ suppresses the error message, so in this particular instance, it's probably not a good idea to use it. I should have thought of that before posting.
Thanks,
