[Zope-dev] ?determine if x is a string or array in PythonScript

[Tim Hoffman]

Hi

I must be stupid or something, but I can't for the life
of me work out a simple way of determining if a variable contains 
a string or array, in a PythonScript in Zope.

I can't import type and or use type() function.
isinstance doesn't work because I can't give a type as the second arg.

I obviously just can't see the wood for the trees, can anyone help
out this silly individual ?
