JS comparison not working when getting XML response

Question

I am getting data as "success" but when I am comparing it to print some result it is not going in if part rather it is executing else part.

As you can see in the image on the right-hand side I console log data which gives success(on left side console page).

Again when i am comparing data with the exact same string "success" it is not printing "hello" rather it goes to the else part and prints "hellddo".

Answer 1

You Should Provide The Code Of Both Your PHP File & Your JS Code Instead Of The Image. So That Code Can Be Easily Copy Pasted And Executed Fast Instead Of Typing It Out.

Coming To A Solution, As @Swati Commented, Try Trimming The data Variable To Remove Any Whitespaces: console.log(data.trim() == 'success')

And, To Fix The Problem On The PHP Side, You Should Just Check If You Accidently Typed
" success" Instead Of "success"
