Question

I know, I know, sounds silly, but I am having this one variable passed around and around and I think somewhere in the midst of it all its losing itself as a Boolean Value, that being the case I need to take said string when it comes to one portion of my script and make sure its read as a Boolean. So with that, I am wondering if theres something like the parseInt function but for booleans cause I know when my int’s manage to get run through the mill and turn into a string cause of, I sometimes need to invoke a means of making it recognize as integer again.

Answer 1

String.prototype.parseBoolean = function ()
{
  return ("true" == this.toLowerCase()) ? true : false
}
