8 Hunks of Hanukkah is a go!

Quoting [info]theferrett:

---

The final stage of the 8 Hunks of Hanukkah is up! You now have a hundred and two pieces of beefcake to look at, but only eight will make the final cut for the extra-special photo shoot.

1) Go to http://www.theferrett.com/hunks/hunk_register.php and create an account with a valid email address. (If you've been reading this journal, you know how much I hate spammers, so don't worry. It's just to prevent bot abuse.)

2) An email will be sent to your account with an activation link. Click on the link to activate your account and log in.

3) Once you're logged in, go to http://www.theferrett.com/hunks/hunk_gawk.php to look at the nominees and vote. (The photos have been thumbnailed to 7k extravaganzas, but you can click on an individual's photo to see a larger image, if he's provided one.) You can vote for as many Hunks as you'd like, but only eight will be chosen for the extra-special rundown.

4) After you've voted, go to http://www.theferrett.com/hunks/hunk_gawk_tally.php to see how your guys are doing!

And voting will likely be very sloooow, as I expect my server to get hammered for a bit. If you wanna help, and you should, link to the index page as opposed to the page with all the pretty pictures.

Go! Vote! Have fun!

Voting runs through the end of November. The eight top-scoring Hunks will then have til Christmas Eve to get me their additional pics so I can post them during Chanukah.

Pass this on!

Okay, maybe I'm missing the obvious. I registered. I logged in. I get the hunk_gawk page, but nowhere on that page does it let me select (radio button, checkbox, or link) which of the hunks I want to vote for, and the "Submit Your Vote" button just generates an error page ("Invalid vote check"). This happens on each of Mozilla (1.7), Internet Explorer (5.2.2), and Safari (1.0.3) under MacOS 10.2.8 (yeah, it's old). It's obvious some people can vote, since many of the hunks have a nonzero vote total. What am I missing?

I'm having the exact same problem. I'm using IE version 6.0.something.

Success; thanks! What was wrong, if you don't mind me asking?

My server host had register_globals set to On, which is horribleawfulBAD but I was unaware that they had it set that way. Once I tightened that up (and a few other settings), there was a session variable I had inadvertently misspelled in the script that was the same as the name of a variable elsewhere, thus breaking the app.

Bad programming, I know, but when I'm churning a whole mini-site out in five hours, I don't check it as thoroughly as I do for paid stuff.

It seems like voting has slowed down a bit. I was wondering if it would be okay to post a notice to [info]community_promo alerting people to the Hanukkah Hunks?

If you'd prefer to keep the news to word of mouth, let me know.

It didn't help that alas, it was broken for awhile thanks to a site upgrade. Bad me. Alert the media.
