Greetings!
Say, I installed Advanced Poll the other day from CPanel 5.0.
I chose the database option for installation.
But I didn't realize at the time that Advanced Poll would be storing its templates within the database itself and ignoring the file-copies on disk.
Now, what I'm doing is I've got a specific poll that I want to make a unique template set for. I want to do this because I want to incorporate a fair amount of text on the poll results page.
What I'd LIKE to be able to do is to have that results page be an actual file on the system, because I'd really like the search engines to be able to "pick up" this text.
And I somehow seriously doubt that when the search engines hit my site's main pages, where the poll is pulled in, that the search engines can "follow" the javascript code that creates the link to the results page.
Can they ?????
And if not, any ideas on how I might get them to scan that results page ?
I guess in the end, that's my main question: Do search engines correctly spider the results pages of your polls? (And if not, what can I do to make that happen?)
Thanks!!!!

Well, I think I answered my own question??
A quick scan of Google for words on the Results page ("/poll", "Send comment", and "Version 2.02")... revealed that Google apparently does scan the results pages already.
But then, I don't know whether or not the templates for those pages are stored in databases or as files on the site.
Does it make a difference?
