Question

Here is my line:

myArray[i].innerText == x

Here are the values from Chrome console:

myArray[i] = “13 ml Apollo glaze sherry truffel 250ml”

x = “13 ml Apollo glaze sherry truffel 250ml”

myArray[i].innerText == x returns false
Why is this happening?

Here is how I define myArray:

myArray= $($('#myIframe').contents()).find('body#tinymce').find('p, li');

Answer 1

debug it, you most likely have some extra whitespace characters in it.

console.log(escape(myArray[i].innerText));

You probably need to trim it.

Or the HTML entities are there.

var replacedString = myArray[i].innerText.replace(/ /g," ");

If you have a bunch of special characters, you will need to replace them all.
