How to check if a string array contains one string in JavaScript? [duplicate]

by

There is an indexOf method that all arrays have (except Internet Explorer 8 and below) that will return the index of an element in the array, or -1 if it’s not in the array:

if (yourArray.indexOf("someString") > -1) {
    //In the array!
} else {
    //Not in the array
}

If you need to support old IE browsers, you can polyfill this method using the code in the MDN article.
