like the other person who replied to you, i'd recommend a service such as bravenet myself.

however, you can simeply create your own! below is an example script ,feel free to copy it and edit it with your own info. then wen you get the emailed results just edit them yourself and post the results.

--------

<html>
<head><title>My Poll</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffeff" text="#000000" link="#0000ff" vlink="#0000ff" alink="#000000">
<center><h1>My Poll!</h1></center><hr><br>
<form name="poll" action="/cgi-bin/submit_res.cgi" method="get">
[Poll questions here.]
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Results"><br><br>
<p align="center">Please note that the results of the poll will not be made available until I upload them.</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Well, it depends on the kind of wesite you are creating. Most content management systems and forums come with their own poll scripts already integrated. In addition to already having the poll integrated into the application, there are many features availible with these types on web systems.

If you will be building you page from scratch, then there are many polling, survey, voting scripts avalible in a few different languages.

For PHP scripts try:
PHP Resource Index

For CGI scripts try:
CGI Resource Index

You should be able to find something suitable there free of charge.

You may want to research Content Management Systems (CMS) as well. They are like a website in a box.

Please note, that in bigredrosen's post only the frontside script is given. You will still need the backend script (CGI) to actually calculate and formate the results.

Hope this helps,

vujsa
