public boolean isEmpty(String fieldName)
                throws de.innovationgate.webgate.api.WGException

Returns if the WebTML form field is empty This method is the same as calling Form.isempty(String) with the given field name

Parameters:

isFilled

public boolean isFilled(String fieldName)
                 throws de.innovationgate.webgate.api.WGException

Returns if a WebTML form field is filled This method performs the opposite test as isEmpty(String).
