Don't know about a correct way but you can use if(empty($variable))

I may be crazy, but wouldn't if ($variable) work just as well? If the string is empty it'll return a negatory on that check.

Lemme double check that.

$testVar = "";
if ($testVar) {
echo "Yes";
}
else {
echo "No";
}

Yeah, ok. That ran just fine under 4.2.3.
