Rails 3 - Ideal way to set title of pages

Question

Whats the proper way to set the page title in rails 3. Currently I\'m doing the following:

app/views/layouts/application.html:

Answer 1

There's no need to create any extra function/helper. You should have a look to the documentation.

In the application layout

<% if content_for?(:title) %>
  <%= content_for(:title) %>
<% else %>
  
<% end %>

In the specific layout

<% content_for :title do %>
  
<% end %>
