Is there anyway to implement XOR in javascript

Question

I\'m trying to implement XOR in javascript in the following way:

   // XOR validation
   if ((isEmptyString(firstStr) && !isEmptyString(secondStr)) |         


        

Answer 1

here's an XOR that can accommodate from two to many arguments

function XOR() {
    for (var i = 1; i < arguments.length; i++) 
        if ( arguments[0] != arguments[i] ) 
            return false; 
    return true; 
}

Example of use:

if ( XOR( isEmptyString(firstStr), isEmptyString(secondStr) ) ) {
    alert(SOME_VALIDATION_MSG);
    return;
}
