hi. i need to know the type of variable i'm dealing with.
take this list: files = [ "lib/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.source.js", "lib/jquery-ui-1.8.1/development-bundle/ui/jquery-ui-1.8.1.custom.js", "lib/jquery-ui-1.8.1/development-bundle/ui/jquery.ui.tabs.js", "lib/jquery/jquery.scrollTo-min.js", "lib/jquery/jquery.corner.js", "lib/jquery/jquery.mousewheel.js", "lib/jquery/jquery.em.js", "lib/jquery/jScrollPane.js", "lib_rv/logAndHandler-1.1.0/lah.source.js", "lib_rv/visCanvasLoaderIcon-1.1.0/visCanvasLoaderIcon.source.js", self.getJavascript_getbootJSPHP, "js/mbCore_boot.js", "content/mediaBeez_custom.js" ] # output a list of the files. html = ''; for i in range(len(files)): file = files[i] f = open (file, 'r') html += f.read() page = { 'html' : html } the third-last item in the list is not a string, it's a function. how do i test for that? -- --------------------------------- Greetings from Rene7705, My free open source webcomponents: http://code.google.com/u/rene7705/ http://mediabeez.ws/downloads (and demos) My music (i'm DJ firesnake) http://mediabeez.ws/music http://www.facebook.com/rene7705 --------------------------------- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
