====================================================================== Suppose you put an ajax poll on each of 3 blog articles and assume blog front page is set to show 3 articles. Then it displays total 9 polls! ----------------------- poll-1 poll-1 poll-1 ----------------------- poll-2 poll-2 poll-2 ----------------------- poll-3 poll-3 poll-3 ----------------------- Because each article contains ajax-poll script and so there are three insatnce of ajax-poll script. Each of them instanciate three divs so it creates 9 polls ======================================================================
