The stumped part was right after what you quoted "...without Cake
converting them to a string."
The problem is that MySQL cannot/will not take a string of integers as
a WHERE/IN clause on an INT field and Cake requires that the
conditions parameter be a string. No matter how I passed the values
to Cake's query they came out with quotes around them - like a string
- and MySQL would only "see" the first INT in the string.
Thanks to everyone for your responses. I didn't find a solution to
the problem itself, but I figured out ways around it.
