with fields qone, qtwo, qthree, etc...
Each question has 6 possible answers / values ranging from Excellent to
Unsatisfactory. Can I see your source code?
Because this is designed to be re-used for all sorts of different votes,
I store the choices as a comma separated list in the ballot table, but
of course there is only one question. Anyway, if it helps, see below
for the relevant bit of code. Looking through it, I think the html is a

is missing alt attributes on the .gifs used for the bars..
