p.s if you dont update,

change your code to this:
 function add() {

                if (!empty($this->data)) {
                        $this->Closeddate->create();
                        $this->cleanUpFields();
                        if ($this->Closeddate->save($this->data)) {
                                $this->flash('The new details have
been saved.','/closeddates');
                        }
                }

        }



        function edit($id = null) {

                $this->Closeddate->id = $id;

                if (empty($this->data)) {
                        $this->data = $this->Closeddate->read();
                }
                else {
                        $this->cleanUpFields();
                        if ($this->Closeddate->save($this->data)) {
                                        $this->flash('Your Closed Date
has been updated.','/
closeddates');
                        }
                }
        }
