CakePHP radio and checkboxes

i've a ctp code snippet of a radio button input:

 $this->Form->input('something', array(
       'type' => 'select',
       'multiple' => 'radio',
       'options' => array('true' => 'condition 1','false' => 'condition 2'))
);

but i cannot handle correctly into the controller the request data passed. It returns an array like this: array((int) 0 => 'true'). So when i try to insert it into the database (I catch it via $this->request->data['Model']['something']), it returns a database error, 'cause of the array. How should I handle it correctly?

thanks in advance

Try this 

$options = array('true' => 'condition 1', 'false' => 'condition 2');
$attributes = array('legend' => 'something');
echo $this->Form->radio('something', $options, $attributes);

For Check boxes Try this

$options = array('true' => 'condition 1', 'false' => 'condition 2');
echo $this->Form->input('something', array(
                'options' => $options ,
                'label' => 'something',
                'div' => false,
                'type' => 'select',
                'class' => '',
                'multiple' => 'checkbox'
            ));
