I am sure you know this, but for the record, Javascript has two equality operators, '==' and '==='. The double form attempts to coerce the left and right sides to the same type, the triple form does not. '1' == 1 returns true '1' === 1 returns false The moment I discovered this, I changed all my operators from the double form to the triple form. Now I no longer have surprises of this nature.
