Because if you have a nice page that ranks highly in a search engine with an html or htm extension, and suddenly change it to *.php. The engine won't be able to find the page. It will think that the page won't exist anymore!

That is a very easy way to lose traffic!

So... How do you add it in normal html pages?

1) Add this to your .htaccess file

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
or
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm
(if you use htm extension)


2)Add this code as in the documentation


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


3)In the place where you want it to appear (in the body of course) put this code

<?php
include_once "poll/booth.php";
echo $php_poll->poll_process(1);
?>


4) Of course the poll process number should be the poll number. That's just an example. I dunno if it will take a lot of bandwith or if it works for you. It works for me on my test pages. I am still looking if there's error because of it.

I just want to help people who have been wandering here for so long looking for this info.

If it helps, good. If not, I apologise

= edit ===
I have checked and it appears to be good.

You can an example of how i integrate the polls at http://oohoi.com/natural%20remedy/everyday_food/apple.htm

Oh! By the way. Make sure your path is correct okay?
