## logic
Tag empty

Evaluate the nested body content of this tag if the requested variable is either null or an empty string.

This tag evaluates its nested body content only if the specified value is either absent (i.e. `null`), an empty string (i.e. a `java.lang.String` with a length of zero), or an empty `java.util.Collection` or `java.util.Map` (tested by the .isEmpty() method on the respective interface).

JSTL: The equivalent JSTL tag is <c:if> using the `empty` operator. For example,
`<c:if test="${empty sessionScope.myBean.myProperty}"> do something </c:if>`

Since:
  Struts 1.1
