Polls and surveys are a type of form. All of the same functionality is
available and applies.
For complete understanding of Forms, polls, and surveys, you should read the
entire chapter ”Working with HTML Forms” on page 156.
• A poll is generally one question and appears on a site for a
very short time, an hour or a day.
• A survey is usually multiple questions and appears on your site
for a longer time than a poll.
For information on scheduling when your polls and surveys appear on the site,
see ”Scheduling Content to Begin and End” on page 65.
With polls and surveys, you can show ongoing results to site
visitors after they submit their answers.
The following sections provide information about creating a poll or
survey beyond the normal form information.
• ”Working With Polls” on page 215
• ”Creating a Survey” on page 220
• ”Making Form Results Available to Site Users” on page 163
