Hey guys Im using dreamweaver mx 2004 and Im working on a site that is going to have a voting poll, which means registered members will be able to vote on thier favorite video. I need to make sure that they can only vote one time for one video and no other video, just one vote per person, how would I go about doing that? I also need the top 3 videos with the most votes to automatically be updated to a leaders page, The leaders page will always show who is in the lead with the most votes automatically. I was wondering if this could be done in dreamweaver or do I have to buy a program that works with dreamweaver? PLEASE HELP!!

Actually it can be done IN dremweaver, but not exactly WITH dreamweaver. You are going to need to use some form of server side language, such as ASP.NET or PHP, and also a database. Let me know if you have the ability to use either, and I can help lead you in the propper direction.

Sorry Im kind of new to all this....How would I know if I have the ability to use a server side language? When I open dreamweaver, under the create new column I notice that I have the choices of Create New HTML, ColdFusion, PHP, ASP JavaScript,ASP VBScript, ASP.NET C#, ASP.NET VB, JSP,and CSS (I always choose Html) Does this mean I have the ability to use ASP.net or PHP.
