#Ruby assignment option to assign unless nil

replacement_content = page_contents.content_label_find(item)
element.inner_html = replacement_content if replacement_content

# Should be able to do something like... not sure if the "=||" is the best suggestion for the assignment symbols

element.inner_html =|| page_contents.content_label_find(item)


# I don't think this is quite what you want, but it's a handy little trick:

one = false
two = nil

out ||= one ||= two ||= 3

will return 3, but if 'one' or 'two' are set to something, then the first value that is a non false/nil will be assigned.
