Here is something that had me stumped with regards to gettype and is_object.
Gettype will report an incomplete object as such, whereas is_object will return FALSE.
<?php
if (!is_object($incomplete_obj)) {
echo 'This variable is not an object, it is a/an ' . gettype($incomplete_obj);
}
?>
Will print:
This variable is not an object, it is a/an object
gettype
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
gettype — Get the type of a variable

Eksempler
Eksempel #1 gettype() example
<?php
$data = array(1, 1., NULL, new stdClass, 'foo');
foreach ($data as $value) {
echo gettype($value), "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
integer double NULL object string
