On page skilledHandyman, I have a handyman_id stored from a previous page and a form with checkboxes with list of jobs available, what I want to do is to update foreign key job_id in "handymen" table using whatever checkbox has been selected by taking job_id from table "jobs". Value of job_id is in the checkbox as it can be seen in the code, it just has to be taken and update a job_id foreign key within handyman. I have set up relationships hasMany with jobs table and belongsTo from job to handyman. This is what I have at the moment but it obviously doesn't work as intended.
