如何在CakePHP中保存相关数据？

Question

I have a 'websites' and 'products' table. The a product can be attached to different websites. So I created a new table called 'attached_products'. It has the fields id, website_id and product_id.

So I have two questions for now, the first one is how do I save a website that will appear something like this in the attached_products table:

id | website_id | product_id
1  |     4      |    3
2  |     4      |    5
3  |     4      |    6
4  |     4      |    10

the above means four products with ids 3,5,6,10 were attached to a website with an id of 4

my second question is, how do I modify the record for example I want to remove the two products attached to a website?

I'm new to CakePHP, many thanks for any help! :)

You have the right idea about what you're doing. Read about HABTM relationship in Cake book. You should learn more about Cake (from simple to complicated things). That one is pretty hard for a newcomer.
