Problems with adv poll

I have 2 problems:

1. The options displayed on my page are centered in the table. I check the template I am using and they look fine in the template preview, but once on my page, they are centered,

2. When I vote, it seems to work fine and display the correct results, but at the top of the page there is an error that says:

any help would be greatly appreciated

it needs to be included at the very start of your webpage before anything else

eg:

<?php
include_once "/blah/blah/blah/yourdomain.com/poll/db/poll_cookie.php";
?>
<html>
<head>
and so on
