I am trying to check if below condition holds true:
var elemArray = document.getElementsByClassName('customers');
for(var i = 0; i < elemArray.length; i++){
elemArray[i].id = i;
var elem = document.getElementById(elemArray[i].id);
var text = elem.innerHTML;
text = text.toString();
alert(text);
if(text=="<br>"){
alert('bingo');
elem.style.visibility="hidden";
}
}
In the 1st alert I can see values as
1. <br>ABC
2. <br>XYZ
and for empty values I get:
1. <br>
2. <br>
so I am trying to compare it but "bingo" is not showing. What is it that I am missing?
Looks like you have either special characters or spaces in the content. Remember == compares exact strings. ie '<br>'
and '<br> '
are different.
Here is a working jsfiddle for and it prints bingo just fine. http://jsfiddle.net/1nxzxjdd/
Some answers mention using indexOf or contains method which might not be useful to OPs question because it looks like OP is interested in finding out values containing only <br>
