If this is the wrong place I don't know where else this should go

You may have noticed that I made "The Ultimate "I wish soldat would have been ported to" Poll if not take a look: http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=32980.0.

My problem is that SoldatForums could do better in presenting the results of the poll. I know that I made an extreme Poll with a lot of options but I still think it should be improved and would be a benefit even for small polls.

My suggestions:
  • Align the bars so that they all start at the same point
  • Don't make the lines break and display the percentages in a new line
  • Allow users to sort the list by number of votes

I don't know how much work this is but I'm really interested to help to add these features. It has no high priority for me but would be nice if it could be added.

I've been wanting to suggest this for some time now, but I believe it has already been brought to the admins attention. In any case, I'm backing this up 100%. It's annoying to look at and should be fixed.

F12, it should be fixed.

I think EH said that he was going to do something about this. Something about the new version of SMF not using tables.
It's very annoying, I'd support any fix to it if at all possible.

Yes, I'm well aware. I'll get to this weekend/tonight/tomorrow, just as I promised FLAB. It's a CSS bug.

edit: fixed.

Thanks guys! :)

If there's anything I can do to make it look even better, please let me know.

Also, the results are now sorted by number of votes descending.

One more improvement. It is not shown in any particular way for which option you have voted. My suggestion: bold it.

Great, let's just test it.

EDIT: So the highlighted line is the one I voted for then. Good job, mate.
