There's nothing wrong with this, but it could get a bit messy if you have multiple polls with more than true/false questions. Why not use one file per poll, with 'answer=count' style formatting. Using hashes to store the values it's easy to load/save the file. > Then, I have a small image, say like 1px, spacer.gif.
