I'm not entirely sure about the "===" operator, but it's working. My understanding from what I've read is that the "===" operator should be used only when comparing strings. Is that not correct?

It's an identity operator - it's used to see if two object references point to the same object. A literal string won't work here, as it's not the same object as the object to which you're comparing it.
