[thelist] JavaScript : How to determine if float or integer

[Danny Goodman]

Test for the equality of parseInt() and parseFloat() on the value. If
parseInt(n) == parseFloat(n), then the number is an integer; otherwise it's
a floater, as far as JavaScript is concerned (where the number 3.0000
automatically evaluates to the integer 3).
