Subject: finding file format of data item

I have a tool that can be run on multiple data formats.  But I need to run it differently depending on the format of the input dataset.  How can I get the input data format?

In the tools .xml file I have:

<param format="interval,lped" name="input1" type="data" label="SNPs">

and

#if $input1.metadata.format=="interval" ...

The if doesn't work, what should be there?

Thanks,
Belinda
