Power Voting For Internet Explorer Users

November 3, 2009 · Filed Under All Entries, Cyberspace, Technology 

Some browsers, including IE and Opera, are not able to recognize the coding of the Power Button code. Users of these browsers are then advised to create multiple bookmarks of the site instead. Below is how it is done using Internet Explorer 8 but the same principle can be applied to other browsers including Firefox and Opera.

STEP 1

  1. Go to http://heroes.cnn.com/confirmvote.aspx?id=06&lang=1
  2. Press CTRL + D to open the Add a Favorite dialog box.
  3. Assign a unique name so as to avoid being prompted to overwrite later on.
  4. Under “Create In:“, click New Folder.
  5. A Create a Folder window will pop-up. Type Power Vote as the folder name.
  6. Click Create.
  7. Click Add.

STEP 2

  1. With the same browser still open, again press CTRL + D.
  2. Assign a unique name for the page.
  3. Under the title “Create In:“, click the drop down arrow and select Power Vote.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Repeat this set as desired.

NOTE:
I advise not to bookmark more than 10 as the page loading becomes slow resulting to expired pages.

TO VOTE

  1. Go to Favorites.
  2. Click the button beside the Power Vote folder to open all bokmarked pages in a tab.
  3. Type in the blank field the code as it appears.
  4. Press VOTE.

    To Friends & all:

    First of all my vote of confidence to what Prof Cesar Torres wrote that WFA is the most relevant, pertinent discussion group. Also, the most tolerant group, if I may say so. As someone who has been declared pariah for my holds no bar opinions by others in our beloved community, I know what I am talking about. Also, kahit baligtad ang inglis ko payag silang makinig dito sa WFA

    Secondly, allow me to share methods of multiple or power voting for Mr. Efren Penaflorida AKA Pinoy CNN finalist
