Miles thanks much for the input. It worked!!! One last question. With this code:
echo $form->input('Project.id', array('options' => $projectNames)); I need Project.id there so that it property associates, however, it displays it in the browser with it's label reading "Id", can I change the label text (not the actually dropdown text but the label text above) to read something like: "Select Project" ? Thanks again!!!!
