javascript, is there an isObject function like isArray?

use the following

It will return a true or false

theObject instanceof Object

You can use typeof operator.

if( (typeof A === "object" || typeof A === 'function') && (A !== null) )
{
    alert("A is object");
}

Note that because typeof new Number(1) === 'object' while typeof Number(1) === 'number'; the first syntax should be avoided.
