Hello Yaron,
For this u need to use the jquery plugin for dynamic forms (http://
www.quackfuzed.com/demos/jQuery/dynamicField/).
The Librarian can click on a button and the new fields will appear.
For each field use a default name with [] at the end (which will make
it stack like a array) example: data[][book_id] after the fields have
been submitted, u will save them via a foreach-luss. something like:
foreach($data as $data){
$this->Book->create();
$this->Book->save($data);
}
Thats pretty much it! At least if i understand your question right!
