Re: Functionality and Output Critique of Voting Booth script?

Are you asking for a UI critique? I have to assume so since I don't see any Perl code. I feel funny getting into that here.

Quick notes:

"Ouch" JScript error message on stumbit? What is that
Combine delete form with create form using create form to review and delete created polls. Now can't see what is being deleted and it's redundant.
use html attribute title tags tool tips on form fields: title="Example: What is your favorite color?"
Give text fields uniform length
Pre fill "Vertical Label" text field with "Votes" and eliminate "(usually 'Votes')"
Eliminate "Name for files" field and auto generate them in script.
Make "(this can contain spaces)" in first field a title tag tool tip and eliminate it from UI. (It's too obvious to justify the space.)
Change "Title of this survey (goes over graph):" to "Title over graph"
Indicate how to excape commas in the questions field.

ignatz, Sorry I wasn't clearer. Yes, I was asking for a UI critique. I realize code critiques are more apropos in SOPW but it is a perlscript so I figured I wasn't too OT... mea culpa. The JS in the admin panel is there as a joke for anyone who thought the publicly available admin panel was live. ;} Thanks for the ideas!
