Excellent vipermad, that now works fine, and the logoff script removes the password too

I also hacked the poll.cgi, so that every single page also has got a link back to the main forums. The template still doesnt work, but never mind. Cheers!
I suppose it must be the + symbol then, because it certainly wont show any votes. I have the dash symbol "-" there in a few options, that seems to work...with no spaces between digits/number. But anyway, dont bother adding + with spaces, it wont count the vote.
