Worked without hassle. Given a previous comment I checked it with IE8 and that seemed fine also.
Tested with two polls on same page - didn't like that at all.
One issue with this is none W3C compliance.

Having the poll results display in the module rather than a new page is a much better idea and this module does exactly that. I'm using the jLPoll_V1.3b version and I had a few minor issues to match my template and to remove the rounding from the result to make it slightly more accurate but this module is definitely worth using instead of the default Joomla one.

Spent 3 hours restyling this module only to find out that it wasn't tested for IE.
DO NOT USE!
(otherwise it works fine FF,O,C,Safari etc)

Very easy to install, visually appealing and site visitors (and myself included) love that it displays the results without navigating to a new page.
However - I've noticed in IE the results do not display properly on occassion. For instance, I created a new poll with 3 options. 2 people voted for 2 different options (for a 50% result). However, the results show 50% for one option and the other two display 0% (so the total does not add up). I've tested this in Safari and it works great. Version 7 of IE does not. :( I've tried the original version and the new beta version with the same result.

Maybe random polls could be added.
After completing one show another poll.
That would be great.
But but as it is its just good.
:)
Thankyou

The fact that it displays the results in the same position as the Poll got me interested. That is exactly what I want. The download and installation were smooth. Sadly, whenever I vote or check the results, I got an endless loop with no results being seen. In addition, it needs some additional work on the compliance with the template CSS.

I was on the verge of making one of my own... NOW I don't have to! This is very nice looking. Installation was very easy and it fits nicely and easily on the page! Many Thanks for a GREAT module!

This module added some cosmetic effects to my site all my visitors love. I recommend this to all who want to move away from the conventional default poll system. Thanks

This is exactly what I was looking for, although slightly cooler! It took about 2 minutes to download, install and have my first poll up and running.
Small suggestion would be, in the case of an attempted repeat vote, the "results" would display in addition to the message "you already voted in this poll today". Not a big deal though.
