Multiple Voting on Advanced Poll

Is there anyway by which we can make the polls mulitple voting (meaning 1 IP can send in multiple votes per poll?)

how do i make the "Vote" from a button to a the vote.gif that comes in the image folder?

thanks.

Is there any program whereby we could view the .php files? Cause what i am getting now is just the notepad version and I want to see how it would look like on a web-server, instead of forever uploading it to my web-server and viewing it from there. (something like how we view .htm and .html files on the browser)

thanks

There are two answers to your question, depending on what you mean by "view"

For viewing .php files, just change the extension (the .php bit) to .html
If you can't see the file extensions, go to "My Computer" click on "view", then "folder options", then "view" again and then deselect the "hide file extentions for known file types" box.

You'll be able to see the extentions now. By changing the extension to .html, you can click the file and it will open in your browser.

BUT.... the php will NOT work.

If that's what you're looking for (and you probably are), you need to install a PHP server on your system. This is not as difficult as it sounds, but I'm not the person to ask how. Personally, since I'm often working from diff. systems, it's easier to keep my FTP client open, and just upload the file after I've edited it.

As for the "multiple vote" question, first make sure that when you set up your poll (from the admin panel) you select "logging off". This means that multiple people can vote. You may also want to disable the "check" function in the "general settings"... set it to "no check". This should fix it.

If you're comfortable with PHP code, you can edit the template you're using to use the "vote.gif" image. If not, then one of the templates offered uses "vote.gif". You can either use that template, or cut&paste the code to the one ur using now. Remember to make back-up copies of any code you edit.

You change the templates (or make new ones) from the template section of the admin panel.
