As I mentioned, ctype_digit() fits the bill nicely: Not if it's a float. <?php $int = '2.333'; $int += 0; if (is_int($int)) { echo '$int is an integer'; } else { echo '$int is probably a float :)'; } ?> Cheers, Rob. -- .------------------------------------------------------------. | InterJinn Application Framework - http://www.interjinn.com | :------------------------------------------------------------: | An application and templating framework for PHP.
