gettype (PHP 3, PHP 4 ) gettype -- Get the type of a variable Descriptionstring gettype ( mixed var)
Returns the type of the PHP variable var. | Warning |

For PHP 4, you should use function_exists() and method_exists() to replace the prior usage of gettype() on a function.
See also settype(), is_array(), is_bool(), is_float(), is_integer(), is_null(), is_numeric(), is_object(), is_resource(), is_scalar(), and is_string().
