Well, you should change $student to $student_id. Not only will that
make it a lot easier to see, at a glance, what's going on 3 months
from now when you need to change something, but Cake expects it that
way. If you have a model named Student and your MyFile model has a
foreign key pointing to Student and the students table, it should be
named $student_id.
As for the flash, try $this->Session->setFlash(...)
