How to check empty/undefined/null string in JavaScript?



I saw this thread, but I didn't see a JavaScript specific example. Is there a simple string.Empty available in JavaScript, or is it just a case of checking for ""?


Answer



If you just want to check whether there's any value, you can do



if (strValue) {
//do something
}



If you need to check specifically for an empty string over null, I would think checking against "" is your best bet, using the === operator (so that you know that it is, in fact, a string you're comparing against).



if (strValue === "") {
//...
}
