Dependencies
No dependencies, you can use this function standalone.
Open syntax issues
php.js uses JsLint to help us keep our code consistent and prevent some common bugs.
Eventually we want all code to pass or at least take into consideration most fixes suggested by JsLint, following this JsLint configuration we’ve decided on.

Thanks to the following developers, you get to have is_numeric goodness in JavaScript.
Hi Kevin e.a.
is_numeric('') returns true in javascript, not in PHP... Shouldn't this be:
1 2 3 | function is_numeric( mixed_var ) { return !isNaN(parseInt(mixed_var)); } |
some browsers will interpret a number as a string depending on how its set... hence a number, can be defined as a string, making the function return false all the time...
this will automatically turn it into an integer in this case
1 2 3 | function is_numeric(integer){ return (!isNaN(integer*1)); } |
@ Martijn Wieringa: And additional compliments for solid code. The integration went seamlessly, nice job!
I've been working on a simular project.. Here are some functions i completes so far.
