include, require and include_once all return boolean results of 1 or 0 which indicates a successful loading of said include. If you want to suppress the output of an include use ob_ methods which prevent output the stdout.
Simply putting 'include_once("anyfile.php")' will output whatever processes occur within that include. Putting the echo statement will additionally output the status of the include operation.

Hi--------------------[snip]--------------------
I've included the following in a php document:
<?php
echo @ require_once("anyfile.php")
and it works exactly as I expect except at the end of the included document
theres a single "1" displayed. I've noticed also that if I include a
document in the included document the end result will be the document I want
exactly as I want it with the addition of two ones "11"s can anyone tell me
how to get rid of the ones?
(if I run anyfile.php by itself there are no "1"s)
This happens if the included file returns some value, in your case it seems to return "true". Remove the return <something> statement (you may simply "return;" if necessary) and the 1 will be history.
