There seems to be a problem with the way the results page is coded. If you
looks at this page, for example
http://members.lugnet.com/polls/results/?n=182 you can see that the content
is displayed twice, once 'without pictures' and once with 'pictures' Apart
from being a bit unnecessary, the 'without pictures version doesn't actually
take out the pictures, as you can see in this example it is only the first
pic for each choice that is removed, making a bit of a mess of it.

Oh my, that is messed up, isn't it?  (*^.^*)

Well, I can't fix this myself but I can tell you that the "twice displayed"
thing was always there. Todd's choice. Ideally, there'd be more detailed
viewing options. Perhaps one of the tech guys here will feel compelled to
tackle it. (But I should say that they're awfully busy as it is.)

Thanks for pointing it out, Tim. I hope the problems don't mess up your use
of the feature too badly. You did such an awesome job! I only wish I knew
more about trains, that I could vote. But actually, the poll itself is a nice
set of examples! The tiny pictures, all at same scale, are great. It would
almost make a nice page under .trains as a non-active record of the ballot.

thanks for the kind words. I appreciate its not high on the list of priorities,
the poll feature hasn't been used that much and the 5 or so years of Lugnet and
I am probably the first person to include multiple pics for each choice.
(although if anyone with access is reading this and can change the actual
entries for each choice I wouldn't mind it if they could add the missing < in
the Southern Railway entry. I was very annoyed with my self with missing it and
a poll is kinda more of a permanant record than a post (and I make mistakes in
them all the time!))
