I'm new to js and I wonder if there is a XNOR operator in JS. I tried !(a^b)
but it gives weird result. For example:
var a,b="aa";
a^b
this code returns true, however, I XNOR returns false.
UPDATE
I need to return true if the two operand are true(different from false values), or the two are false (both equals to : null, undefined,""-empty string- or 0)

try (a^b)==0
i think result of XNOR in javascript is: true^true = 0

Above is the truth table for XNOR. If A and B are both FALSE or TRUE, the resulting XNOR is true. Therefore, it seems to me as if simply checking for equality is actually the equivalent of XNOR.
So:
(a === b) = (a XNOR b)
EDIT: to work properly with your conditions: this should work:
a == b
Note that there are two "=", not three, indicating that this is comparing "truthy" values.
