Well, I got it. Mea maxima culpa.
In the controller, I was setting the select[Model] array with only one
index. Instead of:
if(empty($this->data['Model']['Model'])) { $this->data['Model']
['Model'] = null; }
$this->set('selectedModels', $this->data['Model']['Model']);
I was trying:
if(empty($this->data['Model'])) { $this->data['Model'] = null; }
$this->set('selectedAreas', $this->data['Model']);
This was bombing out at the _selectedArray method of the controller
class. After some hours scattering var_dumps here and there, the
problem became obvious. Hope with time and experience I start to get
these kind of stupid mistakes faster. Or avoid them.
