Google searches of "JavaScript null check" and "How to check for null in JavaScript" were returning results that left something to be desired in my opinion, so I compiled this list. See the code live here: JsFiddle:  http://jsfiddle.net/aaronhoffman/DdRHB/5/ Code also available here: https://github.com/aaronhoffman/utils/blob/master/JavaScript/NullChecks.js Comparison Chart: Hope this helps, Aaron p.s.
