You are right. There is a bug in the code used in the screencast. I
think the problem is that edit.thtml is copied from add.thtml but
forget to include the line <?php echo $html->hidden('Post/id'); ?> so
the id is not posted and the controller ends adding a new post. The
code in the manual is correct though.
I wonder how nobody noticed this before...
