Quick Vote offers three template types, namely form, result and archive templates. Following are the discription of individual template types and their use:

• form

These templates are used in generating a submittable form that is displayed to the public. Usually this form consists of radio/checkbox input fields, a button for casting the vote, button for viewing the results and a link to the archive. Some poll forms may also choose to include with this form the chart compiled of current poll results.

• result

These templates are used in generating results for the public either after they cast their vote, or when they choose to view the results of the poll.

• archive

These templates are used in generating the archive of previous polls and their results.

Subsequent sections will go into details of tags that go into these templates.
