ISDBREF()

FUNCTION: isdbref(<string>)

This function will return 1 if the string passed to it is a valid dbref. To be a valid dbref the string must begin with '#' and be followed by an integer. Also, the dbref must exist in the current database as a valid object. If the object fails either of these criteria, then a 0 is returned.

Example: > say isdbref(#-1) You say, "0" > say isdbref(#1) You say, "1" > say isdbref(This is not a dbref) You say, "0"
