Dardo, by all means thanks for your help; please do not apologize for
anything.

That was an error that was actually during copying and pasting to the
bin website; it is in my model as it should be:

        var $validate = array(
                'title' => array(
                        'allowEmpty' => false,
                        'required' => true,
                        'message' => 'You must enter a title!'
                ),
       );

I apologize for the mistake and appreciate your assistance greatly.
However, even doing scaffolding, I'm still getting the same results.
Quite frustrating as you can imagine.  I wish it was as simple as a
typo but it doesn't appear to be the case.
