  • postpoll.js doesn't check if voting is allowed

    Hi DM,

    Just wanted to let you know I noticed that postpoll.js doesn't seem to check whether voting is allowed on a sub-board. I changed to one of my message areas where voting isn't allowed (i.e., a FidoNet area) and tried to see if it would let me post a poll, and it went ahead and asked me for a poll question. If voting isn't allowed on a sub-board, I imagine it should probably output an error message and not allow posting a poll.

    I agree, that sounds like a handy enhancement.
