Wow seems to be the week for Poll Mod questions.
I have the Poll mod working okay but I notice that when I look at the poll results it shows 12 votes. As the forum admin I also have the option of looking at who voted. When I do this it only shows 10 peoples names. I have also looked in the database which also only shows 10 members. Is there a reason why these two numbers don't match?? |

Dam I must have left it completly open to anyone. Problem now is I get an error if I try to change to members only:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'
Type mismatch: 'cint'
/forum/post_info.asp, line 460
Is this the same problem with regard to changing all the Cint to Clng code? Can I do this with an active poll going? |

Type mismatch: 'cLng'

That means the variable being passed to the clng function isn't a numerical one. Use response.write immediately before that line to write the varible to screen and see what it gives you.

The count variable that's being passed to the clng function, place response.write count on the line above line 460.

This is the mode piece:
' ######################### Poll Mod ########################
if Request.Form("poll") = "1" then
response.write count = Request.Form("count")
ReDim txtAns(Clng(count))
For i = 1 To Clng(count)
if trim(Request.Form("answer" & CStr(i))) <> "" then
txtAns(i) = chkString(Request.Form("answer" & CStr(i)),"SQLString")
else
txtAns(i) = ""
end if
Next
end if
' ########################################################### |

Whatever you've done, count is now a boolean with a value of "True", it needs to be numerical to pass it through to the clng function. Go back to the Poll Mod readme and double check all the changes you made. Also, make sure that any other mods or custom code you are using are not using a variable called count.

You're welcome  Hope you're learning, now, to double check your changes whenever you encounter errors applying mods.

| Yes and I also need to learn - something I should already know - not to implement too many changes at once and to make sure each one works before going onto the next. |
