please don't *bump* me i've spent a few hours searching for help on this although i've learned a few things on the way. Here's my problem.

prob with the poll on my site


I installed the poll and it worked perfectly un till one of the moderators on the site deleted the poll i had and put a new poll on it. But it didn't work and any poll 've put on it since isn't working I uninstalled the software and reinstalled it but to no effect. Can anyone help???

I've not changed any script on the source code on the index.php page from where it was working fine before. Could the moderator have messed with some of the settings in the admin section....

<?php
//"/home/site/public_html/poll/poll_cookie.php";
?><?php require('/home/site/public_html/forum/SSI.php'); ?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
_____________________________________________

<?php
include_once "/home/site/public_html/poll/booth.php";
echo $php_poll->poll_process("random");
?>


So bascially what happens is when i select an option and click on the vote button the page refreshs but it's still on the same page. Where as before when it worked the poll would change showing the results, but this isn't happening. Now when i click on the view results link, the poll will change to the results but it shows up that no option was clicked.....all the options are at 0.

To *bump* means to bring the subject back to the top of the list. It is not a bad thing.

I don't use this poll so I can't help, but if one of the volunteer helpers happens to see this, maybe they can help.... They might want to visually see the poll before you can be helped.

And as pointed out repeatedly, the author of the scripts does not frequent this board - just kind people who try to help as best they can.

Best of luck to you.

I think i may have figured it out!!!! I completly deleted the polls i had running and when i add a new poll the ID in the admin come's up as Poll ID 7 . If i delete that poll and do a new one baring in mind that there is no Poll's now, it will come up as Poll ID 8.... So what i need to know now and would be really greatful is how do i reset the Poll ID in back to 0 in the Admin section

if you want to start a 1 again, if you have no polls in the database you'd
be best off deleting all the database tables and reinstalling the poll. DON'T
delete old polls just make them 'hidden' via the admin panel.
