yes you can save it. As per above form this will post to you controller action in view
public function view() {
// Has any form data been POSTed?
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
// If the form data can be validated and saved...
if ($this->Job->save($this->request->data)) {
// Set a session flash message and redirect.
$this->Session->setFlash('JobSaved!');
$this->redirect('/jobs');
}
}
// If no form data, find the recipe to be edited
// and hand it to the view.
$this->set('jobs', $this->Job->findAll());
}
