it's true that users can change the HTML so you can't use things like that for security (for instance, a while back someone wanted to stop moderators from doing certain things by removing the controls). But in this case I don't think it's that important, is it? And I'm not sure, but can't the user just exit the poll page without creating a poll?

I guess what I'm saying is that what you were doing was probably fine, if it had worked.

many thanks, its working like a charm, gbu
