i think the reason why have this error is because of that
cake supposes the input is from a multiple-select-box, whose value is
an array, but not from a single-select-box (dorp-down-box), whose
value is a single string. so when cake tries to read elements from an
array but the feed is a string, the error occurs.
by default, as grigri said, cake thinks multi-select-box for the habtm
relation since you set that there may be many. if this relation is not
exactly as expected, i would change it if i were you since there may
be more extra database queries (costs) made based on this relation.

good luck!
