Advanced Poll: Going to wrong page upon vote

I have Advanced Poll set up on my site, inside my left menu, which appears on every page. The poll appears fine on http://www.middleeastfacts.com/index1.php (which is a test page, not my main page), and the left menu is an included file called left1.php.

If you make a selection and click vote, for some reason the user is redirected to http://www.middleeastfacts.com/left1.php and not index1.php. Does anybody know why? When I tested it in another location, it worked fine, but for some reason now it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve

Yes
Becouse you are using frames and in that case $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'] is left.php not index.php

You must change it in class_poll.php, or much better don't use frames.

Hi Kodif,
Thanks for your comments. My site doesn't have frames - the left menu is an include, but I'm sure the same problem exists.

Can you tell me exactly how to change class_poll.php? I'm not too familiar with php. I guess the problem is that the left menu or left.php is on every page of my site, so this poll will show on every page. Thus, if somebody uses the poll, the results have to show on that page - it won't always be index.php. Is there a command other than PHP_SELF that I can use?

Anyway, the most confusing thing to me is that here the code works fine, even though I've implemented it the same. Confusing...

Thanks for your assistance,
Steve

I did identify one difference between my actual page and my test page. On my test page, have I have my includes in the same directory - so left.php is in the same directory as index.php. In my actual page, I have my includes in a separate directory, /template/ so that I can find them more easily. So, for some reason, advanced poll is looking for left.php (actually, left1.php because I'm testing it) in the root rather than the tempate directory.

Anybody know how to fix this or do I just have to move left.php into the root?
