So you have your view views/fields/add.ctp
<?php echo $form->create('Field')?> <?php echo $form->create('Field')?> -----Original Message----- From: cake-php@googlegroups.com [mailto:cake-...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Travis Sent: Saturday, 4 July 2009 3:34 a.m. To: CakePHP Subject: Forms with multiple tables I am new to cakePHP and am in the process of learning to use it. I am wondering how I can have a form element populated with elements from a different table than the model, for example I am wanting to write a farm manager using cakePHP as the framework, if I have fields that belong to farms, when you create a new field I want to be able to select from a list of farms, and have it link (insert farm's id as a foreign key), I have currently setup my belongsto relationship so I can view but I cannot add. my original thought was to create a $options array and just loop through the table, but I cannot do that if I do not have access to the farms table.
