Say

a="";  // empty String
b=0;

then

a==b;  // returns true

What Test could I build to return true only if I pare two empty strings or two zero's?

Use the strict parison operator, ===. This will not use JavaScript's default type coercion, so you will get the correct result.

"" === 0; // false

use === instead of == for checking undifined and zero or false pare
