Hello :)
warning with the Boolean( o ) if your object is a number... the Boolean(0)
is false but :
var n = 0 ;
trace(Boolean(n)) ; // false
When you test a number the isNaN(n) is better i think :)
EKA+ :)

thanks everyone for your comments, yes in reallity I use the regular if
{}else{} statement, but I was wondering if there was something similar to
when you dont need the else statement, sort of testing on the fly....
but i think Mark made a good comment on use a return Boolean ( object );
I dont know why i figured that the shorthand was something most people
were
used to and using already...
