When Creating Add Component and pasting the susggested HTML from the polling creation site, I can only get the RESULTS to show, which are the only options from which to source and enter to Add Components. What am I doing wrong? Is there a help page that shows this specific problem?

In the Blogpolling control panel, select the dropdown navigation menu at the top right of the page, and choose Get HTML Code, then click the GO TO button right next to it.

Now you will see 2 boxes. The top box says:

HTML CODE (Style Example)
Use this HTML code to place Vote/Results forms on your website or weblog:


This is the code you should be using. Your visitor will see the Vote form when they first load your page, then if they vote they will see the Results. Once you have voted, you won't see the Vote form again (which makes sense).

The bottom box:

RESULTS HTML CODE (Style Example)
If you want to display the results of your poll on a separate page, use this HTML code:


is really not going to be used much, unless you want to keep a page somewhere where you are only showing the results from polls you have closed.

Thanks for the reply. The instructions confused me stating that the HTML was for "REPLY" preferences. The explanation that you offered that the Vote button only appears with the first view, was not explained on the Poll Manager page. So, thanks for making that clear. :D
