In Perl 5.10 there is a new operator // that tests the defined()ness
so there you could write

$title = $title1 // $title2 // $old_title;

and it would mean exactly what you said you need. It will set $title
to $title1 if defined, otherwise to $title2 if defined and otherwise
to $old_title.


Oh sweet, I did not know that... thanks Jenda!
