The value null represents the object value or variable value is don’t have any value(“No value”). There is no isNull function in JavaScript script to find without value objects.
However you can build your own isNull() function with some logics.

Strict equality operator:-
if (variable === null){
// your code here.
}

is true, the above code will catch both null
and undefined
.
Just by using if
if( value ) {
}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function isNull(value) {
if ( value === null ){
return true;
}
}
var abc = null;
alert(isNull(abc))
</script>
</body>
</html>
