Code: Select all
<?php
$my_int = intval($my_var);
?>

PHP is loosely typed so depending on what you are trying to do it's probably not neccessary to change the type of the variable.

unless there is a comma or somesuch in the varialbe, and you just want the numeric value of the contents of the variable =)
