Too many vanities cause the polls to float to the top.

Polls show up on my work and home computer. At work they're on top of breaking news. At home, they're below. Drives me nuts.

You are doing nothing wrong. The more you play with browsers, the more you see glitches - things that work in one but not the other. I've got some HTML spec somewhere that documents some of what works in IE versus Netscape.

Funny; the poll shows up at the top in my IE sidebar (opposite of what you described).

Try voting, and see if it goes away.

as far as the FR server is concerned "you" on IE is NOT the same person as "you" when you use firefox - especially if you were not Logged On under one or the other.

you must be Logged-In on both browsers.

Damn! That sounded confusing!

Why do FR Polls show up w/Firefox and not IE?

Firefox will take anything.

Remember that it's not really YOU that is "logged in" to FR. It's not even your computer that is logged in.

It is your browser.

Some polls might be available to logged-in members only.

Log in on both browsers.

Just a hunch, it might have something to do with being logged in and how the different browsers deal with cookies.

You have a separate set of cookies for each browser.

IE probably thinks you've already voted.

Firefox doesn't probably doesn't think you've already voted in the IE browser.
