Thanks Andrew - presumably you meant
def web_color=(web_color)
I ended up doing this:
before_validation :set_nils
def set_nils
self.web_color = nil if self.web_color.blank?
self.thumbnail_path = nil if self.thumbnail_path.blank?
end
Originally i had it using a before_save callback but this didn't work as
the object state with web_color = "" was failing the validation before
getting to the before_save, but with the before_validation it works.
However your way is cleaner so i'll do that instead.
thanks!
