Body
I have two tables: "restaurants" and "cuisines" which are related to each other by a HABTM table The table cuisines has certain fixed entries - 54 number A restaurant can have any number of cuisines. On baking the application this came with a multiple select. Since i wanted check boxes i used array( 'type' => 'select', 'multiple' => 'checkbox') to convert it into checkboxes. Now i want to style the way this checkboxes are displayed into columns of 4 as seen on the screenshot below. img2.pict. com/82/bc/a4/1453459/0/200908111511.png <pre><code>echo $form->input('Cuisine', array('type' => 'select', 'multiple' => 'checkbox')); </code></pre> The above code produces many div's around each element as follows <a href="http://img2.pict.com/1a/a3/0a/1453457/0/200908121509.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://img2.pict.com/1a/a3/0a/1453457/0/200908121509.png</a> I have tried the following: <pre><code>echo $form->input('Cuisine', array( 'type' => 'select', 'multiple' => 'checkbox', 'div' => false, 'label' => false)); </code></pre> but this code only removes the outside divs and label. I am not able to control the internal <pre><code><div class="checkbox"> <label for="CuisineCuisine2">Andhra</label> </code></pre> that appear around the single checkboxes. How can I use the FormHelper to remove or give classes to the internal divs, so I can do some custom styling? Or is there any other way to populate this HABTM table to get the effect i want?

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
