Re: Edit multiple models in the same page: possible?

All you need to do is handle the related models in the same form.
There's no need to separate into two forms unless that's your
intention. I have many pages where I update data from one form into
multiple models (e.g. - register a user and sign him up for a job,
which involves creating a row in users, and then updating the HABTM
for jobs).

The form create action can be used to tell it which controller and
action to submit as well, so you could have something like:

<?php echo $form->create('Image', array('controller' =>
'profiles', 'action' => 'image' ));?>

To submit the form to the 'image' action of the 'profiles' controller.

The redirection you're talking about is controlled by the action of
the form, so if you want it to go somewhere else, you just need to
code things that way.
