It appears that any numeric values passed via the URL (..?param=10001) are automatically treated as strings. If I pass ?param=1001 to the following script... $type = ''; if (is_string($param)) { $type = 'string'; } if (is_int($param)) { $type = 'integer'; } echo 'Type: '.$type; ... I get the following result: Type: string But, it should be integer because 10001 is meant to be a number. How does this work for $_GET values?
