Getting Started
Please click the button below if you wish to allow a new
poll to be created.
Step One: Click the 'Allow New Poll' button above.
Step Two: Copy the following HTML code into your website.
WebSite Poll: Yes, No, or Maybe
<form action="/cgi-bin/poll.cgi" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="poll_id" value="yesorno">
<input type="hidden" name="poll_title" value="Yes, No or Maybe">
<input type="hidden" name="redirrect" value="http://yahoo.com">
<input type="radio" name="vote" value="Yes"> Yes <br>
<input type="radio" name="vote" value="No"> No <br>
<input type="radio" name="vote" value="Maybe"> Maybe <br>
<input type="submit" value="Vote!">
Step Three: Put the following link on your site to view the
results.
<a href="/cgi-bin/poll.cgi?poll_id=yesorno"> View Poll Results </a>
If you use Server Side Includes(SSI), you can
use the following in your website.
<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/poll.cgi?poll_id=yesorno&ssi=1" -->
Whenever you decide to change the 'poll_id' to
start a brand new poll, you'll need to re-click the 'allow new poll'
button above.
Once you get the hang of creating and displaying
polls, try changing the colors of the results by creating a CSS style
sheet and changing the 'bar_color' attribute, making an SSI based page to
display the results, and also displaying links to random past polls. All
of these are explained in detail in the documentation section above.
