Poll Results

Is there a way of checking the Poll Results without voting? Why I don't want to vote is coz I already voted..
If I'm not mistaken Matt is using the user's IP address inorder to prevent the user voting again. Though in my case I don't have a static IP. If its an Anonymous user then this method is OK. Though for registered users better keep in track of the registered users who have voted.
Or just have a method to check the poll results without voting.
Just a suggestion..

10 Under 33%
11-50 33%
51-100 16%
101-300 10%
301-145,763,876 7%

Great Work postalcow.. Is your reply a php code that gives the dynamic info of the poll results??

You mean matt should do eval() for every post? :p

postalcow is an admin/moderator. He might be using eval() for his own posts!!!

No, I just thought you wanted the results.

Alla Peanut Butter Sandwich --Poof-- You have em'

As for eval()????

Yeah! It's quite nice to keep a simple link to 'View Results'...

May be it is also a good idea to make up a link to view results of older polls... Just check it out!!!

Yes I wanted the results. But not just for now. I don't want to vote each an everytime when I want to check the results of the poll.

In case Matt misses this post, I am going to drop him a note now. I agree, sometimes I forget I have a static IP.

Thanks postalcow.. I also had a problem when it comes to a static IP. Thought of noting that also. On a local network where all the PC's share the Internet connection not thorugh a Proxy server but through a common gateway which has a static IP, the $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] will be the IP of the gateway for all PCs. When I vote the other users won't be able to vote coz the IP is the same.
If I use $_SERVER["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"] this gives the client IP address only if its going through a proxy server not when its going through a gateway.
I would like to know how Matt is doing this and also what will be the better way to solve all this problems as stated above..
