Use Country. Cake's Inflector can handle it.
As for the rest, you should be doing it in the controller. Also, you
should use find('list') for a select tag.
If your model is properly associated with Country, this should be
simple. Here's how I do it for an Event model:
class Event extends AppModel
{
public $belongsTo = array('Country');
...
}
EventsController:
public function add()
{
if (!empty($this->data))
{
if ($this->Event->save($this->data))
{
$this->flash(
'Event created',
array(
'action' => 'index',
'admin' => 0
)
);
}
else
{
$this->flash('Event not created',null,'flash_error');
}
}
$this->set('countries', $this->Event->Country->find('list'));
}
form:
<?= $form->input('Event.country_id', array('label' => 'Country')) ?>
Note that you don't even require a Country model if your countries
table has both an id & name field. Cake will sort it out.
