Hi David,
You are right in your reasoning. But the original
question asked was "if a node say <fruits></fruits> in
the XML file has data in it or not". By having data, I
assumed "string value"..

Not really, it evaluates to true if its string value
is empty
so it would be true for
<mygarden><fruits><apples/></fruits><mygarden>
To test if the element is non empty use
<xsl:if test="mygarden/fruits/node()">
