Hello Samer, mahdoum,
Just gonna post some quick answers to your replies:
Samer wroteI have to say, the project has been put online in "no-time", and I did not have the time to check for cross-browsing compatibility. But quite frankly, I doubt that more than 1% of Lebanese internet users (those that are intended to vote) are using Opera as their prime browser.
Well, Samer: first of all, you have to make sure your website is accessible to ALL users; and second, Opera is on the rise: many people I know are trying it out and permanently switching.
Samer wroteWhat you say is partially right, I could have chosen not to use AJAX there but the whole point was enhancing the user experience by providing a "simplier" more "desktop-application-like" experience to the users, and using AJAX was a good way to do it.
Well, I can tell you, users don't feel in a desktop-like application on your site. I guess you used AJAX as a first try. Did you write the javascript yourself or did you use snippets? You can get stable cross-browser scripts here:

Yeah, the forum's great on Opera and Firefox, but IE is a problem. I used to get that alert on Bluleb, but successfully debugged.
mahdoum wroteJust checked out your portal and I'm impressed I like the design nice minimalistic feel to it
Yeah, it's just a beta intended to fit in "Web 2.0 style"; it was a quick site, I haven't promoted it yet: my partners are maintaining it, I'm into a new, much larger project now.

Sure, no problem.
