I already added this on my view.
echo $html->input ('ModelB2/input1');
echo $html->input ('ModelB3/input1');

I also added this...
$modelb2 = $this->params['data']['ModelB2'];
unset ($this->params['data']['ModelB2']);
$modelb3 = $this->params['data']['ModelB3'];
unset ($this->params['data']['ModelB3']);

$this->ModelA->ModelB->save (array ('ModelB' => $modelb2));
$this->ModelA->ModelB->save (array ('ModelB' => $modelb3));
..This code first saves the data of $modelb2 and then replaces it
with the data of $modelb3. How do I save $modelb3 to a new 'ModelB'?
Thanks!
