//backslashes are the way to go | |
var bad = '<ul id="myId">\ | |
<li>some text</li>\ | |
<li>more text</li>\ | |
</ul>'; | |

// with '=' we are reassigning a when we want to compare the valies | |
var a = 0; | |
if (a === 1) { | |
console.log("I Shouldn't be in here!"); | |
} else { | |
console.log("I Should be in here!"); | |

// the if condition does not meet the strict condition | |
