This is on another forum section, but I haven't recieved a reply from the person who helped me so I'm going to post it here too So I'm trying to do a little voting box under certain things under my website (the radio voting one) and I can easily get the little dots with Like & Dislike, but I can't figure out how I would make it so that the person can enter the vote and then see how many dislikes and likes it got. I honestly don't know much about html/css and have never heard og PHP before so I'm a beginner, I did a few classes on it but it was VERY basic stuff and nothing like is being mentioned on here. I did find a code for one I would like, but I was unsure of how to add it to my website (weebly if it helps I'm attemping to use the Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down one, where it shows the number of votes for each one. Or the mini poll, which one would be easier seeing as I have almost no experience?\ I was told this, but I was unsure of what it meant or how to do it.

You'll need to do some very basic server-side scripting. For a simple task like that, a few lines of PHP will do the job. You can even save the data to a file and not have to learn anything about a database. It can be done without AJAX, which means a little Javascripting as well, but the effect will be a lot more user-friendly. Briefly explaining your skill-level in those technologies would be a good next post.

Sorry, I was meaning to add my skill before but it slipped my mind. I honestly don't know much about html/css, I did a few classes on it but it was VERY basic stuff and nothing like is being mentioned on here. I did find a code for one I would like, but I was unsure of how to add it to my website. Thankyou! *eta*I'm attemping to use the Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down one, where it shows the number of votes for each one.
