hello all!  


first of all: great job  really!! I like phpESP

I have got some trouble with the survey! We use it as a tool in a bigger 
community!
As the recent survey probably did not store all the user-responses; i am in 
some trouble!
For me it seemed to work but some students told me that they voted and i did 
not get thier vote!
I use the phpESP 1.2 beta 3 without a sepcial user authentification and user - 
login! 
My boss is quiet a bit angry with me and i have to gain a bit in success with 
the next survey (seven hundred studends ;(`)
so my plan to make shure that every responses is allright is a kind of 
confirmation! I want to make shure that every response
is valid and reliable and that no (!!) student votes without a database storage!
I thougth that it would be the best  to _confirm_ every vote with a email 
response to  the respondent!
So i could make shure that nobody would think to vote without doing this! 

so the simplest way to get more security in my task is that:
Am i Able to double the email - Backup: i want to get one and i want to let  
the respondent get one too!
So i only have to put a variable (from the email adress of  the respondent)  -
which i gain in a user-request in the poll - an put this result 
in the field of the so called Email-Funtion /the backup funktion:

What do you think about this plan?


I love this new mailing list; A very good thing!


all my best wihses

one last thing: i had one item in  a poll - a name field - text entry: this 
field included the name of the respondent;: 

from 700 respondent i did not get any person , named such 
like "Indiana" ,Idaho, Itaka, Italia.... and so on ; 

no _I_ at all: My boss wanted to kill me immitiately after finnishing the big 
survey ; Do you have any plan what happended! I looked at all the tables on the 
database .-.. nothing -... especially the answer-text Fields ... nothing at 
all! So it was very very surprising to find out that i - probably produced an I-
 bug! Perhaps i choose a wrong response type!? 

any thoughts?

any help would be apreciatdet!
