I'm trying to do a number of updates in successive order and then write 
information to a history file.
 
My problem is that when I write the history I don't know if the history file 
has already been created.
 
Here is the code path:
 
  if(xdmp:estimate(fn:doc($history-uri))) then
      xdmp:node-insert-child(fn:doc($history-uri)/cms:events,$event)
  else
      xdmp:document-insert( $history-uri,
                                        <cms:events>{$event}</cms:events>,
                                        
(xdmp:permission("cms","read"),xdmp:permission("cms","update")),
                                        "http://ldschurch.org/cms/history";
                                       )    

The problem is that I am getting conflicting document-inserts().  Apparently 
xdmp:estimate(fn:doc()) isn't absolute at determining if a document exists or 
not.
 
Is there an absolute way to know if a document exists so that I don't try to 
create it again?
 
Thanks,
