I just used str = str.toLowerCase().replace(/[a-zA-Z0-9]/ig, ""); to check for special characters and remove them. ^
smart to use regex!!
function palindrome(str) { //Transform input to lowercase alphanumeric only let scrubbedString = str.toLowerCase().replace(/[^a-z0-9]/ig,'');
//Compare string to reversed string if (scrubbedString === scrubbedString.split("").reverse().join("")){ return true; }else { return false; } }
palindrome("eye");
