apparently there is a limit as to what can be put in the option fields. Is there any way to increase the limit?

when I put "<p>" on the end to space the options out (is there a better way?) ..sometimes that is just enough to make it over the limit and I have to shorten my response.
thanks

question on vote page:

what is 1+1?
2
3
4

hit vote..then results page is:

4 - 0
2 - 10
3 - 0

a quick glance of results..it looks like no one voted for the correct answer!

a tad confusing..how do I make the results in the SAME order as the questions??
thanks

duh..am I dense or what?

thanks a million!!!

I completely understand what you are saying..I just don't know WHERE To change this information...

under general settings it says:

URL to poll directory and then in the box (that was auto configured)..it says
/pollphp

is this what I change???? (guess not..just tried it and it still doesn't work)
and why does the rest of the script work if this is wrong? (not trying to be argumentive..I'm learning...I learn by bugging the hell out of people with lots of questions :o))
thanks

I see the file you are talking about..but have no idea how to change it..I have a feeling that it's ok..why would cPanel set everything else up right..but not the comment button???

well crap..you just lost me..I don't see WHERE I edit it..

I assume hit "change" next to base_url??
and when I do that I have the pick of 7 fields to change..none of them look like anything I need and they all look like something to break if I touch them..

this mySQL thing is like Greek to me...if it's set up automatically..why did it put the wrong path???

thanks for your help

no wonder it don't work.. I don't have that line in include/config.inc.php
I have:
(I'm paranoid..I changed the real domain to "domain")

<?php
/**
*
* MySQL -> class_mysql.php
* PostgreSQL -> class_pgsql.php
*
*/

$POLLDB['dbName'] = 'domain_book1';
$POLLDB['host'] = 'localhost';
$POLLDB['user'] = 'domain_book1';
$POLLDB['pass'] = 'xxxxxxxxxx';
$POLLDB["class"] = "class_mysql.php";

/* tables */

$POLLTBL["poll_config"] = "poll_config";
$POLLTBL["poll_index"] = "poll_index";
$POLLTBL["poll_data"] = "poll_data";
$POLLTBL["poll_ip"] = "poll_ip";
$POLLTBL["poll_log"] = "poll_log";
$POLLTBL["poll_comment"] = "poll_comment";
$POLLTBL["poll_user"] = "poll_user";
$POLLTBL["poll_tpl"] = "poll_templates";
$POLLTBL["poll_tplset"] = "poll_templateset";

?>

and that is ALL that is in that file

Thank you
which file is the poll path in?? I have installed this via cPanel that came with my hosting package.. most of the installation was done with a click of a button.

Could you be more specific in how you solved your problem? I am getting the page not found error when hitting the comment button too.
thanks
