If you are looking for concise...

 if ("") then "yep" else "nope"   ==>   nope
 if (()) then "yep" else "nope"   ==>   nope
 if ("foo") then "yep" else "nope"  ==> yep

Thanks, I just stumbled on this while playing with the not() suggestion.
I was thinking "if fn:not() works why not no not just if ... "  ahh english vs 
code : 

Voila ! thanks all .  My code is now much cleaner (but perhaps less readable) 
... oh well ;)
