    Ok this is bugging me. Heres a quick overview of the scenario.
    Im using a wordpress custom field to hold the value of a poll ID im generating for my posts.

    here is the code:
    <?php get_poll(echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "map", true));?>

    any idea why im getting an unexpected T_ECHO?
    "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting ')' in"

    Thanks!
    -Tim

    I'm pretty sure you don't need the echo in front of the get_post_meta...thats probably why. If not, we'd need more details I think.

    Taking the echo out resolved the problem.
