This better?

Remember we are talking aboutr strings:
t = '-Infinity'
not
t = -Infinity

<script type='text/javascript'>

var t = '-Infinity';
//var t = 'NaN';
//var t = '.259';

var result = !isNaN(t) && !/[a-z\s]/i.test(t);

alert(t+' is a fixed point number?\n'+result);

</script>

A fixed point Number?
