Hello. I'm making a photographer's portfolio in Cake 1.1 and I have a
little problem (I'm new into Cake).

I have 3 tables:
- categories
- galleries
- photos

An they're related: Category hasMany Gallery; Gallery hasMany Photo.

I just want that when I go to "/galleries/new/1", it autoselects the
correspondent option in the category_id combo box in that view.

In the galleries_controller.php, function new($gallery_id = null), I
do $this->set('listCategories', $this->Galery->Category-
>generateList());

And in the view (galleries/new.thtml), to create the field, I do <?php
echo $html->selectTag('Gallery/category_id', $listCategories); ?>

It perfectly autopopulates the combo box, but I'm lost in how to make
it auto-select the gallery id that I pass thru URL !!!

BTW... One of the problems I see is that ids of categories table
aren't consecutive, so I can't try selecting the nth option based on
the number at the URL, I'm kinda frustrated.

Thanks,
Emiliano

PS: Sorry for my english...
