In both scaffolding and bake, where Cake automagically interprets your fields, tinyint(1) will be represented as a checkbox. However, with your own views you should be able to use any form element you like.
If I am understanding your issue correctly (that when a field is tinyint(1), without using scaffolding or bake, you cannot save a '7' to that field), then you should submit a bug report at https://trac.cakephp.org/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
