Vote count:

0

the result of the post passes back the value success, i can see this if I alert it out. However, If i try to compare the result by it fails the comparison. What am I doing wrong, How can I compare against the results of a successful post

       $.post('ajax.cshtml', data)
                  .success(function (result) {

                      if (result == "success") {
                          alert(result);
                      }

             })
