Is there any way to edit polls?

Err, don't think so. Try editing the first message, and if that doesn't work it's because we decided we didn't want you to change the poll mid-poll.

Oh, and I moved this topic. Naughty Red!

If you made a mistake and immediately recognize it, the best thing to do would be delete the topic and re-post it.

If a bunch of people have already voted, that might be annoying.

Oh well. On my poll in the General board, I noticed that every time I added an option a slash appeared in the middle of my question. This happened a lot of times, and I couldn't delete them. I think they're still there. Do you know what happened?

As a matter of fact I do.

Techinical explanation: When HTML forms are submitted, things like quotes and backslashes are "escaped" with a backslash. Hitting "Add Option" is actually submitting a form, with the result of printing the same form but with an extra option. When I was reading the data in to fill out the form, I forgot to get rid of the extra backslashes.

The important thing is that it's fixed. Thanks for explaining how it happened.
