Hello All, This code snipplet is from the fine folks at phpwizard.net. I am trying to modify it a bit to add another feature. I want to set a cookie that lasts one week. So if they return it automatically shows them the poll results. The problem I have is that index.htm always shows the poll as if to let them vote. The poll script says "you have already voted! Click here..." Can anyone tell me what simple thing I have overlooked here? Thanks. phpPollCollector.php: // check if cookie exists if($PCDPoll == "1") // cookie exists, invalidate this vote $poll_voteValid = 0; else // cookie does not exist yet, set one now setCookie("PCDPoll", "1", time()+604800, "/", ".pcdiscounters.com"); index.htm: if($PCDPoll == "1") poll_viewResults(1); else poll_generateUI(1, "http://www.pcdiscounters.com/index.htm"); Thanks, Jess
