Poll allows user to vote MORE than ONCE

Help? I've installed the poll and everything...its working more or less fine, but now it's allowing users to vote multiple times.

In addition, when someone refreshes the results it also tallies that as an extra vote.

Can someone tell me how to fix this? I only want people to vote once per poll.

I have the same problem, installation went fine, but everytime i visit another page of my website I can vote again!

but how can i make a poll that only allow a user to vote one time ?

there is no time that i can give ... ?!

also by the way ... lot of people have dinamic ips, does the script check 1º for cookies ?

Add the code it says to add before the html including the cookie_poll.php or whatever it is. This covers people with dynamic IP's. Becuse it cookies that PC so none who uses that PC until the cookie expires can vote. Also make sure there are no white spaces before or after the php code.

How difficult is it to work it out!?!?

I was jusk asking ... because you did the script and not me ...

thx anyway for everything

Hey I didn't write it! I'm just a user like you! Thanks for the compliment though, hope you find an answer.

Hi there,
I've implemented all your advice but i'm still able to vote in a poll more than once if I switch web browsers.

The only thing I can think of is that template file that I'm basing my site on is an HTML file, not PHP.... which seems like a big stretch, as everything else has worked perfectly up to this point. your thoughts?

cheers,
Clint

Post URL for us to see.
Also, if you switch the browser that means that there is no cookie in the new browser to tell the poll that you were already there.
