I have two models, Measure and Article, with an habtm relationship.  I
want to add a measure and a related article at the same time.  I've
tried using this algorithm from another post (http://groups.google.com/
group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/863c403df2a2de6/3137f612e3ffdf68?
lnk=gst&q=saving+data+to+multiple+models+habtm#3137f612e3ffdf68)

Step 1 - Unbind the HABTM with the Article model
Step 2 - Save Measure model data
Step 3 - bind HABTM with Article model
Step 4 - save data['Measure']['id'] = getLastInsertID  <- for the
automagic to happen!!!
Step 5 - Save Article data

And the measure stuff saves fine, but the join table saves the new
measure_id, but the article_id is always 0, and nothing is saved in
the article table.

Here's my code from my measures_controller:

        function add() {
                if (!empty($this->data)) {

                        $this->Measure->unbindModel(
                                
array('hasAndBelongsToMany'=>array('ArticlesMeasure')), true);

                        $this->Measure->create();
                        $this->Measure->save($this->data);

                        $this->Measure->bindModel(
                                array('hasMany'=>array('ArticlesMeasure')), 
true);

                        $this->data['Measure']['id'] = 
$this->Measure->getLastInsertId
();

                        $this->Measure->Article->create();
                        $this->Measure->Article->save($this->data);

                                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The Measure has 
been saved' . pr
($this->data), true));
                                $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index', ));
                        } else {
                                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The Measure could 
not be saved.
Please, try again.', true));
                        }
          }

What am I doing wrong?
