hee people.

I have a problem with error handeling in sequel.  
here is my code:  
[http://pastie.org/495630](http://pastie.org/495630)

As you can see i have a method called create.  
in my migration i set the domain to be unique. So i get an error when i  
try to set a domain name twice …

but how can i get that error ? … i tried (as you can see):  
if item.save  
return true … etc …

but that doesn’t work ☹ ( obviously) …  
i googled, read the cheatsheet, readme etc etc.  
irc doesn’t respond so … hopefully you guys know!!..

thanxs 😃
