Also I am not sure what rails default is when you just add a
"?"....does it only fail if caption is nil?
I like to do something like this in these scenarios:
def the_caption
self.caption.blank? title : caption
end
I haven't used read_attribute yet but from the docs it might look
something like this
def caption
caption = read_attribute(:caption)
caption.blank? self.title : caption
end
You get the idea though....just wanted to mention the "blank" part
because if your caption is somehow set to " " I am guessing you want
the title returned.
