I'm pretty sure it happens everytime someone votes but it displays the latest message as if it was today..... Probably would require a silly amount of coding to display only the vote results instead of a message from several days ago.

Hi,

Yes, as vote on the poll will register as another "new" post.

So this would need to be re-coded for stopping the system registering a vote as a post.
Given it is cookie/database related, one good section of code to troll through and change...

And not really worth it as people may well wnat to know when a vote has been registered in a poll..
And how would you know otherwise??

Cool Volvo Poll

Hi All,

not sure if the Vovo 262C doesn't own me?
Yes, I have a beard, am a retired teacher, & this is my 2nd Volvo!
My 1st Volvo was a P1800. Got married, had kids, an Olds S/W replaced the P1800. Hoping that the 262C recaptures the Simon Templar saint experience!
Too late to purchase a mid-life crisis Mazda Miata! Which in my opinion is an MGA or P1800 knock off anyhow! Showing my age!

740 GLE estate, 1987, 2.3 injection auto, with 7 seats and there's only two of us! I love it. Had a 1978 244 GL 2.1 injection auto years ago, loved that too. For four-pot engines they seem to have quite enough power! And big comfy seats too, brilliant.
