类型识别
typeofObject.prototype.toStringconstructorinstanceof
typeof：
- 可以是标准类型（Null 除外）
- 不可识别具体的对象类型（Function 除外）
Object.prototype.toString：
- 可是识别标准类型及内置对象类型（例如，Object, Date, Array）
- 不能识别自定义对象类型
constructor：
- 可以识别标准类型（Undefined/Null 除外）
- 可识别内置对象类型
- 可识别自定义对象类型
function getConstructiorName(obj) {
return obj && obj.constructor && obj.constructor.toString().match(/function\s*([^(]*)/)[1];
}
getConstructiorName([]) === "Array"; // true
instanceof：
- 不可判别原始类型
- 可判别内置对象类型
- 可判别自定义对象类型
JavaScript的数据类型可以分为：标准类型和对象类型。
标准类型有：undefined Null Boolean Date Number Object
对象类型（构造器类型）：Boolean Date Number Object Array Date Error Function RegExp
用来判断数据类型的一般有四种方式，分别是：
typeofPrototype.toString()constructorinstanceof
下面我们写一个HTML来检验一下：
<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScript类型判断</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style type="text/css">
.red{
background-color:red;
}
</style>

<script type="text/javascript">
/* Standard Type */
var a; //undefined
var b = document.getElementById("no_exist_element"); //null
var c = true; //Boolean
var d = 1; //Number
var e = "str"; //String
var f = {name : "Tom"}; //Object
/* Object Type */
var g = new Boolean(true); //Boolean Object
var h = new Number(1); //Number Object
var i = new String("str"); //String Object
var j = new Object({name : "Tom"}); //Object Object
var k = new Array([1, 2, 3, 4]); //Array Object
var l = new Date(); //Date Object
var m = new Error();
var n = new Function();
var o = new RegExp("\\d");
/* Self-Defined Object Type */
function Point(x, y) {
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
}
Point.prototype.move = function(x, y) {
this.x += x;
this.y += y;
}
var p = new Point(1, 2);
/* Use the Prototype.toString() to judge the type */
function type(obj){
return Object.prototype.toString.call(obj).slice(8, -1).toLowerCase();
}

执行的结果如下：
其中红色的单元格表示该判断方式不支持的类型。
