javascript: typeof

March 8th, 2008 Posted in javascript by dreamluverz

typeof returns one of the following strings:

  • number
  • string
  • boolean
  • object
  • function
  • undefined


typeof(typeof(x)) is always string, no matter what x actually is.

IE seems to think that some functions are objects rather than functions: typeof(document.getElementById) returns object.
