Apoll component installation is an easy job. Just download the necessary files from here - the component and the module and install it through the joomla installer. Make sure you have installed a flash player plugin for you browser and your site is running on a PHP version 5.2.8, MySQL version 5.0 (Not checked, maybe it works on earlier versions of PHP/MySQL - homework for me)
After the successful installation of both component and module go to
- Components -> Apoll and create your new Poll. Make ajustments to the parameters. Don't forget to publish it.В
- Extensions -> Module Manager -> Apoll Module; Choose the poll you'd like to display and publish it in the desired position.
- Optionally you can make a new menu link pointing to a certain poll or to the list of active polls (default view).

Apoll is a component and module for Jommla 1.5, that displays the vote results as an animated pie chart. (Click here to view the demo). Basically it is an upgrade of the joomla default poll component. Here are some of the enhancements that Apoll has to offer:
Back end enhancements:
- drag and drop reordering of the poll options;
- choose how to display the results - with a pie chart flash graphic or the joomla default way;
- assigns color to each option /works even if you choose to display the results with the joomla default way);
- defining parameters (pie width, pie height, color of slices);
- show background logo or image under the flash pie chart
Front end enhancements:
- view pie results as animated pie chart or as joomla default way;
- view all published polls in a table, with number of options and voters for each one;
- sort the polls by name, voters or number of options
Module enhancements:
- Does not show poll options if you have already voted (according to the lag setting);
Of course the future development of this project will continue. Here are some of the planned /to-be-developed/ features.В
Future enhancements:
- Ajax-based voting module;
