Body
<p>Let's say I have a Posts table and a Comments table. I want my /posts/view/ page to have a form on the same page for submitting a comment, much like any typical blog. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong here, but this is what I've tried:</p> <pre><code>class PostsController extends AppController { var $name = 'Posts'; var $uses = array('Post', 'Cmt'); function view($id = null) { ... if (!empty($this->data)) { $this->Cmt->create(); if ($this->Cmt->save($this->data)) { $this->Session->setFlash(__('The cmt has been saved', true)); } } $this->set('post', $this->Post->read(null, $id)); } </code></pre> <p>and in the view</p> <pre><code><?php echo $this->Form->create('Cmt');?> <fieldset> <?php echo $this->Form->input('name'); echo $this->Form->input('email'); echo $this->Form->input('title'); echo $this->Form->input('content'); ?> <div class="input select required"><label for="CmtStpageId">Post</label> <select id="CmtPostId" name="data[Cmt][post_id]"> <option value="1">postname</option> </select> </div> </fieldset> <?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit', true));?> </code></pre> <p>What's wrong here that won't allow a record to be posted to the cmts table?</p> <p>Also, I have the post id hardcoded into that form, as you can see, because the select box doesn't populate with post id's for whatever reason. Any help with that would be appreciated also.</p>

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.
