Thanks Brendon. Definitely appreciate your help. Maybe you can use the exact cake application I am using so that to reproduce what I am seeing right now. Here is the link: http://www.magnik.com/api/files/magnik%201.2.4.zip. It is a amazon script written in cakephp. I do think the version matters since I can use the latest version of cake with no problem, although I don't have the capability to upgrade that application to latest cake. Thanks again!
