Wrong. You use file_exists() to first determine if something exists. The name is a bit 
misleading, you can verify existense of files, directories and links (read: any file 
type). file_exists() is written to _not_ output any error. Whereas the is_*() 
functions are for good reason.

So, if you don't want to use file_exists(), you need to use @is_*(). This is the 
expected behaviour.

when using the is_file function and a file is not found an error is sent back to the 
error log.  I expect this simply to return false in this case.  I am aware of 
file_exists, however in the manual:

 Returns true if the filename exists and is a regular file.

Therefore I expect this to also be testing for file existence.  I do not expect 
debugging output leading me to have to use @is_file and possibly miss other crucial 
error output.

Actually, the last I checked, you _do_ need to use @file_exists() if you have error 
reporting all the way up to avoid error output. That surprised me.

I don't know what your 'last' is, but current CVS doesn't output anything with 
file_exists():

mfischer@ficken:~$ php -q
? error_reporting(E_ALL); $bla = file_exists('sdahfw3gjkgsdgjksd'); var_dump($bla); 
?
bool(false)

No error outpout.
