A quick way to check if an object is a function... |
Syntax
The .isFunction property is added to all objects, but only returns true on functions.
| Code Block | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
var returnValue = obj.isFunction; |
Return value
| Value | Type | Notes | API Version |
|---|---|---|---|
true | Boolean | The object is a function | 1.0 |
false | Boolean | The object is not a function | 1.0 |
Examples
Pre-check that a value is not null before using .isFunction...
| Code Block | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
var val = null;
if (val.isFunction) { // Reference Error (null.isFunction not defined)
}
if (val && val.isFunction) { // false
// val is a function
}
// alternate approach using typeOf()
if (typeOf(val) == "function") { // false
// val is a function
