Hello-

I've been given the challenge of setting up a laptop
where we can run a mock presidential election ..anybody
have any ideas re: best way to do (I will not have
internet access)..i want to set up a page where visitors
can click on icon / radio button and vote with some type
of tally functionality ...desperate
 
Try building something in excel and use macros and buttons to handle the
tally.
 
Setup a small web server with front page extensions and use Microsoft
front page to setup a poll. Direct your browsers home page to
http://localhost and veola you have your self a voting booth

Doesn't Yahoo Groups provide "surveys" that work this way?
 
I agree with the earlier post, setup local web. Create an ASP page and
connect to a local access database.
 
Its realy simple w/ font page. There is a wizard to creat a poll. and
The web server is butil in to xp its called iis. If you click on details
the front page extensions are in there also. so then all you have to do
is install MS font page and create your poll.
 
4 years ago I made a little VB app that showed Bush and Gore for election
boothe options.
When one voted for Gore he got one vote and Bush got none. However, on each
third Bush vote he got his and Gore got one also.

Florida bought, and used - I'm told - , nearly 9,000 of them.

Ever copy the web code you find on the internet and use that, hmmm?

Yeah. We had a web design class in one of our schools do that. Within 10
minutes I got a call from the webmaster of a site complaining that his
site was data-mined and threatening legal action for copyright
infringement if the copied data wasn't immediately deleted from our
computers.

No always got out a book and figured it out my self. Never demoted my
self to "stealing" someone elses code.
