| That is exactly what I'm trying to achieve. But the operators I am
comparing
| are already assigned to variables. In other words, the expression reads:
|
| if (myValue == listValue) { // do next stuff
|
| So they should already be being evaluated as strings, right?
|  (say for example myValue= "==" and listValue = "==")

| When the user selects an operator from a select, he is selecting a string
| "==" and not a literal operator as ==, so comparison is very easy.
|
| if ("==" == "!="){
| // do something.......
|
| }
|
| If this was not what you were trying to achieve, please elucidate.

|
| | Hey folks,
| |
| | I'm trying to do a comparison between two operators in javascript. Is
that
| | possible?
| |
| | I have a dropdown list where the user selects an operator to use. Later
I
| | need to compare the user's selection to determine my action.
| |
| | Is this possible? If not, what's a workaround?
| |
| | Example:
| |
| | User choices:
| | ==
| | !=
| | >
| | <
| | <=
| | >=
| |
| | My statement says (variables translated here) if ( == == == ) { ...
| | but that particular case returns false.
| |
| | What do I do?
| |
| | Thanks in advance!
