If you are just starting out I recommend you start with cake 1.2 (generateList() is function of 1.1, so that's why I assume you are using 1.1).
But more importantly I suggest you read the manual about data validation and proper way to retrieve model data, as of now you are doing a lot of things incorrectly.
