I'm having a problem trying to save (update) some associated data. I've read about a million google returns, but nothing seems to be the solution. I'm at my wit's end and hope some kind soul here can help.

I'm using 1.3.0-RC4, my database is in InnoDB.

Course has many course_tees CourseTee belongs to course

My controller function is pretty simple (I've made it as simple as possible):

if(!empty($this->data)) $this->Course->saveAll($this->data);

I've tried a lot of different variations of that $this->data['Course'], save($this->data), etc without luck.

It saves the Course info, but not the CourseTee stuff. I don't get an error message.

Since I don't know how many tees any given course will have, I generate the form inputs dynamically in a loop.

$form->input('CourseTee.'.$i.'.teeName', array('error' => false, 'label' => false, 'value'=>$data['course_tees'][$i]['teeName']))

The course inputs are simpler:

$form->input('Course.hcp'.$j, array('error' => false, 'label' => false, 'class' => 'form_small_w', 'value'=>$data['Course']['hcp'.$j]))

And this is how my data is formatted:

Array ( [Course] => Array ( [id] => 1028476 ... )

[CourseTee] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [key] => 636 [courseid] => 1028476 ... )

[1] => Array ( [key] => 637 [courseid] => 1028476 ... )

...

) )
