There's a link in the License Agreement it says :: http://proxy2.de/register

Right first go to http://www.apache.org and get the apache web server version 2.0.45 or whayever it is.

Then go to http://www.php.net and get the latest version of PHP.The latest is 4.3.3 I'm running 4.3.1 though there shouldn't be any differences, if there is use version 4.3.1 and then upgrade using their instructions to 4.3.3.

Final bit of downloading go to http://www.mysql.com and get MySQL version for Windows 4.0.14a, the top one.

Next install apache, install php and then mysql. They should all have setup/install.exe files for you to run. To check it went OK under your C drive there should be two extra folders one saying PHP and another saying mysql, if so they are installed. Apache is installed here :: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2 and the path to where to place documents that are to be accessed from the web are in :: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs

Head over here and get my tutorial thingy :: http://spisas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=125

Hope that helps, Templates bit is at the end of the file.

body
{
scrollbar-face-color: colour;
scrollbar-highlight-color: colour;
scrollbar-shadow-color: colour;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: colour;
scrollbar-arrow-color: colour;
scrollbar-track-color: colour;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: colour;
}

This can go in a style sheet or css file with the extension .CSS All you have to do is replace colour with the colour you want that part of the scrollbar to be, give me your e-mail address and I'll send you a pick of what each part of the scrollbar is for you so you know which bit your colouring.

A few things does your host support PHP?
Have you changed the pages extension to .PHP?

If your still stuck post again here.

Auron

It looks as if the PHP is'nt being parsed let alone found, if you have edited the code you may of deleted something or added something that shouldn't be there and that can screw it up. check things like the begining and ending <?php...?> and general stuff like that.

Is it on all pages or just one of them?

Auron

A few things just need explaining here...

1) Logging On / Off

This determines if information is collected from the person voting in the poll, it collects a few details like IP, browser name and type. This is all it does and can be viewed under Poll Index, then Stats under the Stats column. You can tell if Stats is On or Off on the Poll Index page by if the Stats icon is greyed over, its Off, and if its not then its On.

2) Check No Checking / IP Table

This is a way of allowing people to only vote once, where you can set the amount of time they are locked out for. Which is just to the right of the drop down box. When someone votes, if IP Table is selected, their IP address is stored so they cannot vote again until their lockout time has expired they are then allowed to vote again. This method is poll specific, so it only locks them out of the poll they voted in.

3) The Cookie Code

This is here I guess if you want to exclude voters from all polls or you only have one poll to exclude them from. To me this seems pointless as you've got the IP Table and Locking Timeout situated in the General Settings whereas with this you have to add some extra code that confuses people and to change how long the cookie will last until it expires you have to open poll_cookie.php and edit it within the file itself.

4) Stuff to Read

Also if you go to page four of the forums and work your way through to page one most of your questions should be answered or you could try the forums SEARCH function in the top right!

Are you running it off your PC or an actually LIVE server? Coz to get PHP to work you need a web server and then PHP. I can help with installing Apache 2.45 or whatever the latest and PHP 4.2.3 and MySQL 4.013 or again whatever version it is since I've managed to get them to run on my PC which I use as my test server.

Hey guys here's a question for ya....

If HTML works in a file with the extension .HTML or .HTM

then....

PHP will work in a file with the extension .PHP ???

and...

You've got PHP code in a file with the extentsion .HTML or .HTM then it won't work!!! You need to change it to .PHP for it to work. Another major factor is that PHP won't just work in your browser like HTML. HTML is parsed by the browser, and PHP code is parsed and executed by a separate script interpreter engine thingy and then the results are sent to the browser. Try this great place :: http://www.php.net/

The principle here is that the PHP code is embedded in the HTML code. This means all you have to do is change the files extension to .PHP and add the relevant bits of PHP code inbetween these tags <?php ...code goes here... and ?> The rest of the file can be just normal HTML. Read this for more info :: http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2067 ::

If you look at your code there is a opening < bracket missing don't know if thats it but you can get rid of the template bit if your using the template set called default otherwise change it to the name of the template set your using. NAd whats with the <? and ?> bits on the end?!?!?!?

Also with it sayig file not there either you haven't uploaded it or the root to it is wrong. Again also whats with the double slash bit? Not needed.

read this http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2070

Auron

Well, yes! of course it does! How do you expect the server to parse the PHP code if it doesn't even though the page its got has PHP in it, hence the extension, so that it does know its got PHP code in it. With the download of Advanced Poll 2.0.2 PHP version there are two ways for the polls and stats to be recorded in flat-file text based files or throught tables in a MySQL database. I have heard the textfile version is slightly faster, but the MySQL one may be easier to add extras to it, though I'm not sure of that.

Auron

Hi, people!

I've been away a while but I have been working some of the time I was away on holiday! WooHoo! And now, I've got pretty far working on my new help file, for advanced poll 2.0.2. I've also been working on the poll itself nothing that changes its functionality but makes more sense of its functions. A few new features include...

Updated and Added to Lang. file
New Bar Colours and Images
New Menu Images
New built-in Tutorial/Help System
Explained Demo Polls
Simplest version of the Poll Templates.
Updated Admin Templates
Updated some Menus

This will be released anytime between now and the end of December. But in the meantime you've got the guides I mentioned in the post that sent you here:
