Re: How to save data in an different table than the controller table when no relations?

You don't need to create a model. If the model does not exist CakePHP
will automatically create the model for you based on your AppModel.

@Chrriss: Since you don't tell us what is not working I'm going to
assume that it is your car that isn't work I would recommend you give
your local mechanic a call or find a mechanic mailing list. They would
be able to help you much more then this group will.

Please give us an accurate description of the problem including any
error messages.
