After solving null problem how can I check ActiveViewIndex with JavaScript or jQuery?

It seems 

if(MultiView.ActiveViewIndex == 0)

is not true!!

Thanks in advance.

    after our page is completely loaded into the browser & viewing the source code , we can say it’s not possible to CHANGE (Not CHECK) the ActiveViewIndex of Regular MultiView In asp.net with only javascrip or jquery.
    because there is no element out there with MultiView1 id -> just a div Existed.

    we only can check the ActiveViewIndex of MultiView1 as Nathan has answered by below code :

    var activeViewIndex = <%=MultiView1.ActiveViewIndex %>;

    plz see the below link for more information (latest post):
    MultiView Is A reach Element
    therefore the below code has no meaning : 

    var MultiView = document.getElementById("<%=MultiView1.ClientID %>");

    if you want to CHANGE (Not Check) the ActiveViewIndex in client side there is a trick -> plz look at the below codes :

    <%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<script runat="server">
    protected void butSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MultiView1.ActiveViewIndex = int.Parse(HiddenField1.Value);
    }
</script>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>Demo</title>

    <script language="javascript" type="text/ecmascript">
    function OnClientClick( ServerControID,IndexControlID, Index){
        var objDemo = document.getElementById(ServerControID);
        if(objDemo){
            document.getElementById(IndexControlID).value = Index;
            objDemo.click();                        
        }        
    }
    </script>

</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <div>
            <asp:MultiView ID="MultiView1" runat="server" ActiveViewIndex="0">
                <asp:View ID="View1" runat="server">
                    <span style="color: #ff0000; background-color: #33ccff"><strong>Hi, I am View 1</strong></span></asp:View>
                <asp:View ID="View2" runat="server">
                    <strong><span style="color: background; background-color: #99ff00">Hi, I am View 2</span></strong></asp:View>
            </asp:MultiView></div>
        <asp:HiddenField ID="HiddenField1" runat="server" />
        <input id="btnShow1" type="button" value="Show View 1" onclick="OnClientClick('butSubmit','HiddenField1','0')" />
        <input id="btnShow2" type="button" value="Show View 2" onclick="OnClientClick('butSubmit','HiddenField1','1')" />
        <div style="display: none">
            <asp:Button ID="butSubmit" runat="server" OnClick="butSubmit_Click" Text="Submit" /></div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

    and here is the source code of the upper codes after the page is loaded in ie 9 :

            if (objDemo) {
                document.getElementById(IndexControlID).value = Index;
                objDemo.click();
