Hi,

I am in the process of launching a website using the vb poll functions. One of the features I am developing will be a "Add this poll to your blog/website" type service - the user can click on a link and will be shown the html of the poll form to copy/paste to their website. The problem is with the Post referrer whitelist since the polls use POST for the poll voting.

Can anyone think of a way I could (safely) bypass the whitelist for poll.php?

Cheers,
Ian

This would be extreme difficult i think without doing concessions to security. Your problem is that the list of reffering domains is unknown and might change at any time.

So the fact that its only poll.php where I want to ignore the whitelist has no bearing on the risk? I'm not a programmer so I'm not really sure about this sort of stuff. Can anyone think iof a workaround?

just wanted to say, that is a great idea, and if you ever do get it to work, I would love to try it out as well.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
