I am new to cake. I have two tables, customers, and balances. balances belongsTo customers, and customers hasMany balances. customer_id is a foreign key in the balances table.
I baked the models, and then the controller with scaffolding. Everything worked as expected so far. Next I baked the controller without scaffolding and with the regular functions, index, create, etc. Then I baked the views (saying yes to the scaffolding option). When I have a customer present in the database, and I go to create a new balance for that customer, everything works as expected, and there is a drop down menu listing the customer id's in the create new balance form. When I do not have any customers, and I go to create a new balance, it shows me the labelTag "Customer", but no dropdown menu, not even an empty one, and the selectTag IS present in the add.thtml view. It's not even showing an empty list. That is problem #1. Problem #2 is, it will let me create a new balance without supplying a customer_id. This is problem because I perform validation on the customer_id field in the balances model. 'customer_id' => VALID_NUMBER, Obviously there is a data integrity issue, but, shouldn't the save fail because customer_id is required, despite the fact that the drop down isn't showing up (which I am also curious about).
