Salutations Dreamhost Comrades ^_^
I am in serious need of your knowledge and help. I am a newbie to PHP. I would like to use a poll on my website, but alas. It says that " (polls _only_ work in .php files)"
Unfortunately, I don't know a lick of PHP, or how to go about adding this poll. I've tried to add the PHP code in an HTML page, and renaming in .php (I know, I am a noob).. and needless to say it didn't work for me.
How does one go about putting a poll on my page?
I really appreciate all your time and patience with my noob question. I can imagine a lot of you are laughing at my ignorance. 
Thank you so very much,
Laura Mabee
Edit: For the record, this is my code:
<?php
// Important! You have to include it before your html code
include_once "/home/.destimona/lmabee/frozentears.org/polls/poll_cookie.php";
?>
<html>
<body>
<?php
include_once "/home/.destimona/lmabee/frozentears.org/polls/booth.php";
echo $php_poll->poll_process(5);
?>
</body>
</html>
But this is the result I get.
