Name
isset()
Synopsis
bool isset ( mixedvar
[, mixedvar
[, ...]] )
The isset()
function returns true if its parameter has already been set in your script. This is not the same as the empty()
: if a variable was set and had no value, isset()
would return true
, and empty()
would return false
.
To check for "variable not set," use the not operator !
, as in if (!isset($foo))
.
