Looking for a 'pick a-or-b' voting system script
- by user324455
Apologies: this is my first time on stackoverflow and I'm starting with a question and seeking advice. Sorry.
Caveats: I know HTML and CSS pretty well. Javascript and PHP are not completely alien, but I'm really pretty basic on those. That said, I'm pretty sharp and willing to search for explanations independently.
Ok, so my question is this:
I want to create a site with a voting system very much like the one on kittenwar.com - the page loads 2 random images from a db of some sort and you click on the one you want to 'win'. Ranked pairs kind of deal.
Then there is a leaderboard of those images which have the highest win-loss ratio.
There also needs to be an uploader for peeps to upload their own images and have them go into an approval workflow, and from there into the db that feeds the voting thing.
I tried a pre-made solution ('photo battle') but found it was completely standalone, so trying to integrate it or change any of the options was a nightmare, plus it was buggy.
i'm sure there has to be a relatively easy way to do this, right? Ideally I'd like to build my site in Joomla and integrate this functionality somehow.
I'd be very grateful for any advice on this.
Thanks
Tom
