James,

Setting up phpESP for the first time -- by far the best PHP voting package
I've come across! thanks! -- and had to make this one small fix.  Since we
aren't authenticating voters (more on that below), the vote success page
was producing an error in espresponse.inc.  I made this change at line 532
to work around it:

/* ADDED TO PREVENT "Warning: Undefined index: PHP_AUTH_USER" MESSAGE... */
        isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_SERVER_VARS']['PHP_AUTH_USER']) &&

As for unauthenticated voters, I've been thinking it would be a step
toward discouraging cheaters in an open vote like this if I add in an
email confirmation step.  I'll let you know if I can get to that in time.

Cheers,

Iain
