I need to troubleshoot PHP code to store the results of a poll, and to display the results. I have started the code but am really confused how to properly use the CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE, INSERT and SELECT statements.
I need help with this, as well as how to display the results in a similar fashion to the below:
Your favorite flower is the Rose.
There are 500 total votes.
Rose received 10% of the total vote.
Daisy received 20% of the total vote.
Other received 70% of the total vote.
Please assist me with structuring the code, and/or direct me to a similar poll on the Internet, so that I may actually see code that works. Examples of how to use the above statements would be very helpful.
