Assistance with JavaScript/jQuery validation

I have a button called "letsgo". When it is clicked I want to make sure that both a text area (Notes) and a a text field (theperson) are populated. Could someone help me with the "if" part of my validation below? Thank you.

	window.onload = function() {
    document.getElementById("letsgo").onclick = function() {
        var TextArea = document.getElementsByName("Notes")[0];
        var TextField = document.getElementsByName("theperson")[0];
        if ..................
        {
            alert("Please enter a Person and Notes."); 
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }
}

I ended up using the below. I needed both required and 1 text area and 1 text field.

Thank you for the assistance.

if (TextArea.value.length==0 || TextArea.value.length==0)
