Trying to add a unique type of poll – Need Help

Hi,
I’m trying to add a poll to my site where users can vote from 1-10 and it will change an overall score from 5.6 to 5.7 or 5.8 for example, based on a certain number of votes. Does anyone know how to do that? I’m very familiar with html through html5 and know the basics for php, css, and a touch of javascript, it any of those are needed for the poll.

It's written in html and uses css just for the overall layout.

  • 1. You need a web page with an input form for the questionnaire.


  • 2. You need a database back-end to store the answers received to the poll.


  • 3. You need a server-side script to glue the two together.


  • 4. You need a web page to present the results.


    • If 2. is MySQL, then it would be logical to use PHP for 3.

    If 1. and 4. are the same web page, you can embed 3. in the same page.
