Thanks Sherlock for the response.
If i understand right, then the problem would be the line that i use
to include the prototype js file?
Following the tutorial  I placed the prototype file in the app/webroot/
js/ folder. and I include this line in the app/views/layout/
default.ctp file:

  <head>
        <title>  My Cake Blog Application       </title>
        <?=$html->css('cake.generic'); ?>
        <?=$javascript->link(array('cake.prototype')); ?>

  </head>

Thanks,
-Armen
