Hi Tazz

As you suggested in your previous post, using HasAndBelongsToMany is the 
logical solution here.

I did a similar thing for a computer magazine that I built a site for. 
Each dealer sells one or more of the standard product types that the 
magazine lists.  In the Dealer edit page I just presented a list of all 
of the product types with a check box beside each.  The administrator of 
the system just clicks the check boxes to select as many product types 
(or in your case music styles) as required.

Cake then saves the association for me when the model is saved.  I don't 
believe that I had to do anything fancy to the data in the controller, 
but it has been a while and I don't remember exactly.

Regards,
Langdon
