The problem is trying to do the following....

Get the form to show the invoice_id passed to the controller method as
a read only - non-drop down and to pass that back to the controller
for the save once the user has entered the data.

The formhelper seems to automagically create a dropdown box for;
                echo $this->Form->input('invoice_id');

even if I don't send the list of invoices from the controller using;
                $invoices = $this->Lineitem->Invoice->find('list');
                $this->set(compact('invoices'));

Tell FormHelper to use a normal input for invoice_id, eg.:

echo $this->Form->input('invoice_id', array('type' => 'text', 'readonly' => 'readonly'));
