Is this ok? Suppressing warnings with the @ symbol

Hi,


Having just discovered get_meta_tags and dumping all my CURL functions a problem arose. During user testing some URLS (trimmed, properly validated, working and perfectly normal urls) were throwing an error. The function was called in an ajax call and the warning was displaying in the message field (normally used for 'Invalid URL' or 'Name too long' type error messages or 'Thanks, that site has been added' messages)

Thank
