			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jooimla 1.5 has a basic, but useful component built in to create basic polls. Theses polls can be used to gather information and feedback on anything you want.</p>
<p>Users can access the &#8220;Results&#8221; page and can see the results of all your polls by selecting the correct poll from the drop down box on the &#8220;Results&#8221; Page.</p>
<p>If you have a long question the drop down box cut&#8217;s the question and you can read the whole question of the poll.</p>
<p>To increase the size of the Poll drop down in the Poll&#8217;s &#8220;Results page&#8230;do the following</p>
<p>1. Go to /components/com_poll/views/poll/view.html.php<br />
2. Make a backup of the file<br />
3. Change the width value in the below code<strong> from 200px to whatever you want</strong></p>
<p><code>// dropdown output<br />
$lists = array();<br />
$lists['polls'] = JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $pList, 'id',<br />
'class="inputbox" size="1" style="width:200px" onchange="if (this.options[selectedIndex].value != \'\') {document.location.href=this.options[selectedIndex].value}"',<br />
'url', 'title',<br />
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_poll&amp;id='.$poll-&gt;id.':'.$poll-&gt;alias)<br />
);</code></p>
<p>to</p>
<p><code>// dropdown output<br />
$lists = array();<br />
$lists['polls'] = JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $pList, 'id',<br />
'class="inputbox" size="1" style="width:<span style="color: #ff0000;">500</span>px" onchange="if (this.options[selectedIndex].value != \'\') {document.location.href=this.options[selectedIndex].value}"',<br />
'url', 'title',<br />
JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_poll&amp;id='.$poll-&gt;id.':'.$poll-&gt;alias)<br />
);</code></p>
<p>4. Save and upload.</p>
<p>Hope this helps</p>
