试图比较2字符串if语句[关闭]

Question

I am trying to compare 2 strings, but there are not comparing as I would like. I am getting a value from a div and converting it to a string, when I find the typeof it is telling me is a string but still it is passing by the if statement.

When I write.document they both look the same. Thanks

<div id="countries"><?php $geoplugin->locate(); echo"{$geoplugin->countryName}"?> </div> 

<script>
                 var country = document.getElementById("countries");
                 var count = country.innerHTML;
                 var newc = String(count);


                 if ( newc === "Ireland" ){
                    document.write("this is ireland");
                    alert("You are from Ireland");

                 }else{
                    document.write("You Live in " + newc);
                                    //alert(typeof newc);                  
                    //alert(newc);

                 }

                 </script>

From your HTML it looks like you've got a trailing space after the <?php ...> instruction. So whatever is there, it won't exactly equal "Ireland". Try using trim to remove any whitespace from the ends of your string.

var newc = String(count).trim();
