Name: WebVote
Version: Beta 1
Contributed by: Based around code from WebTest2000, and Snitzified by DarlingBri, badly.

Description:
WebVote is a different type of poll. It allows you to add a dedicated polling section to your Snitz forums. You can then run multiple polls at once. WebVote comes with it's own Access database, but does not have web-based admin of polls. There is a form in Access, though.

WebVote requires no changes to existing Snitz files, which is a bonus for me, because I always screw that up. To integrate it, I just linked to it as a URL from my forum homepage, but obviously, you could get more elaborate about this.

PLEASE READ THE README. It will explain more about my severe ASP limitations and the resulting cosmetic foibles. It works perfectly well, however.

Any help here is appreciated. If you can make it better, especially the way it looks, please do. Post the new zip here, or send it to me and I'll chuck it on my server.

Download: Download link

Enjoy, hope someone finds this useful!

Oops, sorry, it is now.

No, I actually can't link to the implementation I'm using, because:

1. My Snitz forum is closed to the public. WebVote uses the colour settings from Snitz, so I'd have to install and setup an whole 'nother Snitz forum just to demo this.

2. It doesn't require changes to existing Snitz code or overwrite any Snitz files, so people can demo it themselves on a no-commitment basis.

If anyone installs this and would like to offer up a link, that'd be great.

Actually, upon reflection, I was rather stupid about that.

There is a demo of the original code. Demo: Click here.

And here are two screen shots of the Snitzified version in this zip:


You start out with a list of poll categories, like Fun, Sports, Politics, etc.




It then shows you the polls for that category. I quite like that it checks off the polls you've already taken.


Once you open a poll, you just vote, and it then shows a results page.

is there a picture demograph like the other poll has? it looks better than figures only.
