You don't need to set the value in the input, instead you can do it from
the controller.

if($this->request->is('post')) {
    // Logic to process the form submission
} else {
    $this->request->data = $this->Model->read(null, $id);
}

Change this part "echo $this->Form->create(null, array('url' => $loc));" to
contain the model name, for example if this form is for the User model, do
the following "echo $this->Form->create('User', array('url' => $loc));"

Alternatively you can specify the model in the input like such:

echo $this->Form->input('User.email', array('type'=>'text', 'label'=>'',
'after'=>'e-mail'));
