Search, using this...

It outputted like that so e-mail harvesting spam bots can't get your
visitors e-mail addresses. In other words it stop your visitors getting spam.

I believe the info for it is in one of the stickies at the bottom.

Have you tried changing your browser' Text Encoding.

For example...

When I view a Japanese site in comes up in loads of weird characters.
If I change the text encoding to Japanese it displays the correct characters.

Go to the poll admin area adn create or edit a poll.
At the end of each row for each option of the poll there should be a drop
down boxd where you can select a colour for each option of the poll.

I could vote but I didn't it.

This is more a problem with your end. You'll have to solve it.
Also SEARCH the forums about whether users can/can't vote and under what circumstances.
This has nothing to do with my understanding.

I was able to vote in the first two but not the third.
Check in the admin panel, for each poll whether there is an expiry
date or the poll has been disabled (some may be enabled or hidden).

There are PLENTY of topics on being able to vote more than once and
the like all over this forum. Search. You'll find a lot more information
that may help you understand all this and solve your problem/s.

Got the correct paths set in the config file?
Uploaded all the necessary files to your server?

Search the forums.

Look in admin panel of the guestbook for ip banning.
its in there somewhere.

You can't see the vote button because you voted.
But I can if I went to your site.

It's way to stop people voting for the thing repeatedly.
AKA spamming a poll, just the same as spam email to try and sell something, in this case it is to make it look like one particular option on the poll is chosen more.

I mean it would be pointless if I could go to your site and vote in your poll repeatedly to get my selected optoion to the top with the highest number of votes.

you don't need to add .php to htaccess. it is already parsed since it has the php extension.
if a page has php in it should have the php extension.

php pages can contain html, its just pointless setting a server to pass .php
and .html/htm files as most of the .html/htm files will have just html and not php.
I mean, the server has to parse an entire file and it turns out it contains no php!
What a waste of time and resources.

I mean if your host has PHP, why do you need to give your page a .htm/html extension?
You can use a .php extension and save yourself a lot of time.

YOUR not supposed to vote multiple times, ie spamming a poll so you favourite result comes out on top.

Are you out of disk space?

you can just rename it.

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

there should be a file called config somewhere that needs to be setup.
