    Much like the front page of videohelp, I want to create a poll on the front of my page that anyone can vote on as them come by. I'm just wondering how this is done?

    You can do it lots of ways. You can use a forum that has polls built in, like phpbb. Or use a CGi poll from cgi-resources. com

    Thanks...

    I know how to create polls in the forum I run. However on the front pages of my site (Not the forum) I would like to have polls that people can see and vote on regardless of whether they are a member of the forum or not.

    A forum hack or a "portal" conversion might be needed.

    *THAT* sort of poll requires some sort of CGI or server-side scripting. However, it's possible to call an external script for those functions. I think Bravenet has some of those
