i am in a government project. it needs to show a polling module in the pages.
i have no idea how to do it with. Thanks a lot!
expecting your answers.

sorry - this is a board to monitor :(

KiiM 1: yes it could, you'd have to create another field that stores who has voted, and programmatically populate that field. 2: That shouldn't be too hard. If you want to keep the same model I have, you could add those fields through the code in the same manner that the rest have been added.

Hi ..i was trying to install you web part using stsadm command shown below , but geeting command line error
....\stsadm -o addsolution -filename ..\PollingWebPart.wsp

plz help me out

Great webpart!

>> KiiiM - I've just modified the web-part to store a cookie, when hitting the submit button. And then ask if this cookie is set in the renderchildcontrols. You can't see who have voted, but you can prevent people from voting more than once.

Hi guys, any ideas why I get "command line error when I execute stsadm command?

I have no idea why I am getting "command line error", but I found a Lemuel Paul's script (see link below and it works great.

Phil,
How can I use cookie and restict users to vote multiple times? The newest download version is not using cookie? I would be great if you add configuration property to enable/disable it.
Thanks. Good job.

Dragankova - yeah, that is a popular feature request. When I wrote the webpart, we didn't have in mind to make it scientific, more that it would be "for fun". I'm sure there are many programattic ways to accompish that though. Unfortunitely, my wife wants me to keep my day job, and because of that I don't have a ton of bandwidth for such requests, but the source is available if you do :(

Any solution for the issue during deploying Polling web part in foreign language installations of MOSS?

Jaikumar - check out Michael's discussion post:
"Hi again guyz, i've finally found the internal who's doesn't match:

.views["All Items"];

must be set at .views[0]; to show the first view.

and the other one is the name field for the question, in my case (French) Title must be set at Titre. :)

All the best,
Michael"

Hopefully that helps... sorry - i don't have much/any experience with writing globalized code :(

Hi all,

I am planning on adding some more updates in the next few days that will include a verbose mode, as well as some more code clean up that may fix the "Unexpected error" that some of you may be encountering.

I am also looking to add in multi-language support, so feel free to help me out as I only speak english. I need to know the countries that should be support, and the language globalization codes for each. Please visit this website to get your language code http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533052(VS.85).aspx so I can do my best to support your language.

@elektronisch: Don't know if it's a globalization issue, but I've tried the latest version of webpart in WSS 3.0 Spanish - Argentina (es-ar), even with the walkthrough provided by dgiovanon, and it won't save the results in the Polls list. Options get displayed, and the Submit button works, but it doesn't add up to the response count.
Even tried setting some values manually for the responses, and they get displayed, but I can't get it to increment any value.
¿Any ideas?
