OK, again thanks for your help.
So I have the ID being passed back as a hidden field:
echo $form->input('id', array('type'=>'hidden', 'value' =>
$rental['Rental']['id']));
I thought that Cake would, due to the relationship I set up in the Model,
grab the ID from Rental and pass it to Rate as rental_id. Is this not the
case? Do I need to explicitly set rental_id such as:
$this->data['Rate']['rental_id'] = $this->data['Rental']['id'] ??
