Hello all,
First off, I want to thank the members of this forum for being generous and forthcoming with their help.
Secondly, could anyone help me with the following?
When a user votes in a poll, I'd like to get his/her gender, which in my vB is $bbuserinfo[field5] (could also be stored otherwise - I don't know), and record it together with his/her vote in the database. Then, when I display poll results, I'd like to tell the readers how many women and how many men voted for each answer.
How to do this?
I assume that recording and outputting additional info is the same process for any info - that is, if I learn to do it with gender, I can do it the same way with, say, the person's country.
Thank you,
R.
