I have a simple example below.  I just want a form that saves stuff to
the database.  Its never getting to log "test2" I guess the data is
not in the right format but how am I supposed to do it?  I've already
spent a considerable amount of time debugging this and other problems,
please help!

thanks.

CREATE TABLE users
(
id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
lastName varchar(255),
firstName varchar(255),
picture_id int,
about_me varchar(255),
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

here's the model:
class User extends AppModel
{
    // Its always good practice to include this variable.
    var $name = 'User';

    // This is used for validation, see Chapter "Data Validation".
    var $validate = array();
}

controller:
class NewuserController extends AppController
{
        var $name = 'Newuser';
        var $uses = Array('User');

        function index()
        {

        }

        function add() {
                $this->log('in newuser_controller add()');
                if(!empty($this->data)) {
                        $this->log('test1');
                        //If the form data can be validated and saved...
                        if($this->User->save($this->data['User']['about_me'])) {
                        $this->log('test2');
                        //Set a session flash message and redirect.
                                $this->Session->setFlash("User Saved!");
                                $this->redirect('add');
                        }
                }
        }
}


View:

...
<form action="<?php echo $html->url('/newuser/add'); ?>"
method="post">
<? //echo $form->create('User'); ?>


<FONT CLASS="text12">&nbsp;<BR>Describe yourself</FONT>

<?php echo $html->textarea('User/about_me')?>

        <?php echo $html->submit('Add'); ?><br/>

<? //echo $form->end('Add User'); ?>
</form>
