Ok, please correct me if i'm wrong...
First of all, i'd rather use $_COOKIE instead of $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS.
And in the line...
if ($voteNow == 'Y' AND $userVote == 'Y' AND $cookieJoke != 'voted') {
Why don't you use the operator NOT IDENTICAL (!==), cause != will also
return true if the variables are the same type sometimes.
