Don't Echo Out cURL

When I use this code:

$ch = curl_init($url);
$statuses = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

I am returned what I want, but if I just use that - $statuses is echoed out onto the page.

How can I stop this?

Put this on line 2:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

Include this option before curl_exec()

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

In addition to the accepted answer, make sure you didn't set CURLOPT_VERBOSE to true, if you add this

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true );

there will be output from cUrl, even with CURL_RETURNTRANSFER set to true
