Question

I have a database with the following table:

id    value
-----------
1     yes
2     no
3     no
4     maybe

I’m using some simple php to log the choices entered on a poll website. The user selects a radio box and it is entered into the above table. However, I want to make this a little more flexible. I created a simple backend that allowed an admin user to add or delete poll choices. What would I do to show on the frontend the number of votes for each individual choice, when the number of choices is not constant? I know I could do this easily if the poll choices were static but since the backend user will be changing the choices, how could I dynamically display the results?

Answer 1

I am not really sure what you are asking. Is it COUNT you’re looking for?
