When clicking on the Vote, I often get just the result, with no chance to vote. Any ideas?

Is it possible that you or someone else on your computer has already voted? Each computer is only allowed to vote once.

I someone else has voted you should try again tomorrow or Wednesday, it'll probably let you vote by then.

No, hadn't voted, no-one else uses computer. Happened last week as well.

Hmm, perhaps your security settings are preventing it recording the fact that you're voting and it takes the safe route. Not sure why that wouldn't be the same every week though - unless you're changing your privacy settings.
I'm out of ideas now...

That's a point - I couldn't vote at one time because it came up in a 'pop-up', but I found that if I right clicked and opened in a new window instead I could then vote

DKB, is this a problem at home or at work?

With me it was at home, I don't know if it still happens because I automatically open in a new window now (on the rare occasion that I vote). I just thought that it was worth a try if aeroDellboy was still having problems

That's fair enough. It's just that they use your IP address to track whether or not you've already voted, and many "work" networks share the same IP address amongst all the computers in the company. Thus, if anyone in the company votes, no-one else can. Not your problem, obviously.
When I vote and I've submitted, I often get an error response which means that I just don't bother to vote on some things.
Unfortunately mainly from The Archers

So - all these voting results are actually what our computers think, or even what our networks think, and not us listeners' opinions at all?
Well, really.

Am voting from home - not work, still won't allow voting, goes straight to result. Only thing that has changed is using Firefox and Jont's script, but have voted since installing.
Sudden thought.....
Have just tried using IE6 and it has worked. Can't find anything in Firefox that allows me to change.
