[Rails] .empty? Method

[Nick Stuart]

It looks like you are calling it on a Post object, where the .empty is
meant for collections/strings and such. Should the above line read,
if @posts.empty?
..

Notice the s. I'm guessing you are loading posts like:
@posts = Post.find(:all)?

if so then @posts.empty? should work just fine.
