Mine took a bit longer..the graphic artist wanted pretty colors and bars
on it..
Here's the display bit of it..assumes an open database with values of
for against neutral and didn't vote at all (NULL) in it
The databases insertion is just from a form..
function display_votes($x,$y)
{
$maxwidth=100; // simple enough.
$framey=$y+40;
$framex=$x-15;
//
?>
<div style="position: absolute; top:<? echo $framey -48; ?>px; left: <?
echo $framex ?>px; width: 180px; color:#47295C; text-align: center;
font-weight: bold;font-style: italic;font-size:8pt ">
Are you against, for, or neutral about this development?</div>
<div style="position: absolute; top:<? echo $framey; ?>px; left: <?
echo $framex ?>px;"><img src="images/Pollometer.gif" border="0";
alt="poll-o-meter bezel"></div>
<?
$y+=50;
$x-=25;
// get pixel width of the three possible results. We ignore those who
didnt vote (yet)
$neutral=mysql_result(mysql_query("select count(voted) as total from
people where voted='neutral'"),0,'total');
$for=mysql_result(mysql_query("select count(voted) as total from
people where voted='for'"),0,'total');
$against=mysql_result(mysql_query("select count(voted) as total from
people where voted='against'"),0,'total');
$total=$against+$for+$neutral;
$forx= round(($for/$total) * $maxwidth);
$neutralx= round(($neutral/$total) * $maxwidth);
$againstx= round(($against/$total) * $maxwidth);
/*$forx=10;
$neutralx=7;*/
// Right. Now draw three coloured bars.
