Adding Advanced Poll to a Webpage...

I have created a servey and when I clicked on help it tells me to copy the code below in a html page

<?php
// Important! You have to include it before your html code
include_once "/home/pasfins/public_html/pool/poll_cookie.php";
?>

<html>
<body>
<?php
include_once "/home/pasfins/public_html/pool/booth.php";
echo $php_poll->poll_process(5);
?>
</body>
</html>

Now when I do this here is what I have on the page
poll_process(5); ?>

Help please, how should I copy the code...

Thanks

Your document needs to be .php, i.e., "polls.php", not "polls.html" and needs to be on a server that has php.

That's happening with me as well. But do I need to redo all of the page or can i just rename it?

you can just rename it.

open file in notepad. do 'save as' then type "filename.php" (including the quotes!). save. done!

it worked for me, except for one thing, its displaying another poll template, instead of the template i was using before

is there anyway to embed it into an .html page without having to change it to a .php ?

U can add it within <iframe> tag, as i did, but note that old versions of browsers may not show it properly.

Why would you feel you have to do that? In case it's the index.html file you have to change, after creating the .php version, you can delete the .html version and every browser will take you to the .php.

I have the files saved as php one is poll.php the other is index.php (where I embedded the code) and I am still only displaying the (poll process 4) line

Should I leave it as booth.php or specify the actual poll?

Thanks

Nevermind, your comments and help paid off, I just needed a bit more elbow work. Thanks to all who left help.
