How can I check for an empty/undefined/null string in JavaScript?

Question

I saw this question, 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 f

Answer 1

1. check that var a; exist

2. trim out the false spaces in the value, then test for emptiness

   if ((a)&&(a.trim()!=''))
   {
     // if variable a is not empty do this 
   }
