There are more differences than that, but if you read the migration guide 
(http://book.cakephp.org/view/1561/Migrating-from-CakePHP-1-2-to-1-3) you'll 
very quickly be able to move on up. The book is the best out there (even though 
there are only three that I know of). I don't *think* that much of it stretches 
into any really complex areas where the sample code won't work either 
straightaway of with a few minor tweaks. I think the key thing is to change all 
references to $something->function to $this->Something->function (e.g. 
$form->create becomes $this->Form->create, $html->link becomes 
$this->Html->link, and so on).

Encountering incompatibilities is a good thing as it will make you examine, 
debug and fix the code, which is a much, much better way of learning than just 
copying, pasting and running code.
