You can get the next value like so: $orderArray = $this->find(null, 'MAX(order) as order', null, -1); $max = $orderArray[0]['order'];
You could put that in your model beforeSave method (or in the controller if you preferred), to update the data to be saved. As it doesn´t depend on user input, I think that using ajax to set this value is complicating things and potentially inviting problems.
