Hi Jack,
When you delete one poll, you are deleting the line of file polls.txt. Thus the randomic number does not find a valid id and produces one
poll empty in the homepage.
I created more one variable: $prefer_poll. When the number generated for srand not to find one valid id, it will substitute for this poll. I think it will correct the problem. I wait opinions.
code:
sub poll {
##########
# this sub generates complete Table-ROWS it therefore has to be included in a boxheader and boxfooter
#
if ($polls_are_loaded ne "YES") { load_polls(); }
if ($_ ne "" && $existpoll{$_}) { $thispollid = "$_"; }
elsif ($info{'pollid'} ne "" && $info{'pollid'} !=~ /\W/) { $thispollid = $info{'pollid'} }
else {

$thispollid = $pollid;

if ($thispollid eq ""){$thispollid="$preferpoll";}

$thispolltitle = "$polltitle{$thispollid}";
$thispollactive = "$pollactive{'$thispollid'}";

Re: Abywns Polls - and More to come...If you take a look at the Main Page here you will see the Polls are now 3 blocks long...
Some nice added functionality.
in my plugins.pl I added this code to make the extra blocks under the existing Poll.
code:
#######################
sub right_top_plugins {
#######################
# These blocks are located below the poll
##################### Begin Poll Code #########################
poll_results_block();
all_polls_block_small();
##################### End Poll Code ######################### Re: Abywns Polls - and More to come...It seems the 2 bottom Poll Blocks stay set to the current Poll, while the main Poll Block is still rotating!!!
This is actually a good thing...
Now there can be 2 polls on the site at the same time...
1 is the standard polls block.
1 will be in the "results-type" voteable block.
ABYWN is a trickster... this stuff has been hiding here since 2002!!!

Re: Abywns Polls - and More to come...Dont Cry for me Romania!!!!
Re: Abywns Polls - and More to come...if you dont undestend is becouse you`re stupid.
try like this, vote 5 times on the poll, at the same questions, and you`ll see the point
Re: Abywns Polls - and More to come...I know what you are talking about...
its the letters being squished...
the only thing you can do is suffer...
If your right-side block was wider it wouldnt be as noticeable.
I am using longer words then you in the polls so it doesnt look as bad.
I didnt make it, I am just using them... If you want to try and change how the layout is, go play within the poll script I sent you.
