Take a look here: http://longgoldenears.blogspot.com/2007/09/triple-equals-in-javascript.html
The 3 equal signs mean "equality without type coercion". Using the triple equals, the values must be equal in type as well.
0 == false // true
0 === false // false, because they are of a different type
1 == "1" // true, automatic type conversion for value only
1 === "1" // false, because they are of a different type
null == undefined // true
null === undefined // false
'0' == false // true
'0' === false // false
