Thanks for posting up your results Dakapo. It took me a little while to figure it all out but I think I've finally figured out a way to implement a similar Select which saves its data to a session variable. One thing I did want to mention which took me a little while to figure out is that the definition of $this->data depends on how you name your select tag. For example, mine is called 'BbxLanguage/lang_id' which is the 'Model/field'. So then $this-data['BbxLanguage']['somelang_id'] would work. Just in case anyone was having trouble working through your code.
