I don't get any errors yet. But what I'm asking, is if anyone could direct me in the right path to complete this little voting page. That's all.

Hope yall don't mind me throwing some PHP code out there. Could you please give me some suggestions? I'm trying to create a voting page for my website. The files are as follows: A config.php file An index.php file, An vote.php file And a voteprocessing.php file. The contents of the config.php file are as follows: <?php $host="localhost"; $user="user"; $pass="password"; $edgar=mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass); if(!$edgar) { die("Cannot connect properly. " . mysql_error()); } $db="database2"; $db2=mysql_select_db($db,$edgar); if(!$db2) { die("Error: cannot find Database. " . mysql_error()); } The contents of the Index.php file are as follows: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";> <html lang="en-US"> <head> <title>Voting page</title> </head> <body> <div id="main"> <p> Hello.

I want Polls to contain the poll question and the five answers to that question. I want the PollAnswers table to contain the pollID and pk_id with the visitors IP address and the answer that they chose. Can someone direct me in the right path to how to construct the rest of this voteprocessing.php file?
