It uses the Official Joomla! component for polls (com_poll), thus, all your existing polls will still work.. and it does not require a component installation.
Features
-------------
* Ajax Technology, no page reloading!
* Uses the default Joomla! Poll Component, no need to install a component, which means that all your previous and current polls will keep working.
* Uses Mootools, which is already used by joomla!, which means no extra javascript code!, and if you have disabled Mootools, it uses a smaller code that still gets the job done, and if you use jQuery instead, it will work too.
* you can set a message in your language for users who press the vote button without choosing an option, for other parameters, your local language will be used.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
This is a very nice alternative to the basic Poll module that works with the Joomla Poll component. The problem with the standard Poll module is that when you click on "Vote" or "Review" you're taken away from the original page the poll was on. This is a nuisance when you've included the module in your content so that other text and hyperlinks can be used in relation to the poll. The Ajax Poll module keeps you on the same page when the results are loaded. Worked perfectly for my application. Omar was very prompt and helpful with some questions I had too.
