Oh. Well I had a HABTM setup originally, but I need to store
additional information with the associations – so not just user_id and
survey_id, but additional fields (date_assigned, survey_priority). As
far as I know, you're not allowed to add columns to the HABTM join table.
You can have extra fields with no problem at all. If you look at the
models, both your user and survey model will have the join table
(users_surveys) defined with the key that it is joined on.
All you will have to do is generate a model for users_surveys too so
that you can extract the extra data and provide queries to use both
user_id and survey_id instead of the id field of the join table.
Basically, it is quite straightforward to do this, but Cake will not
generate all the code for you.
