Watermoss Posted September 27, 2001 Share Posted September 27, 2001 Anyone have any recommendations for a simple/quick/easy cgi poll to put on my website - like the one on the Neowin homepage! Thanks, Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PabUK Veteran Posted September 28, 2001 Veteran Share Posted September 28, 2001 I would like some recommendations for one too. There are 1000s out there but how do you know which one to choose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortensen Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 I found loads of PHP and MySQL polls but none worked particularly well. It would be nice to have a poll but it's not the highest priority on my "small" site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quboid Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 What sort of poll? What language do you/your host support? Database or text file (database better but very rarely supported for free hosts)? 2 options or unlimited options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YahoKa Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 Well... cgi is broad. If you dont want to spend any money, get PHP and MySQL (or whatever database software u like, for a poll you could just use a text file.) Its free, easy, fast, and powerful. Once you setup PHP, you can make, or download thousands of pre-written scripts for your poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
