Yep - that would be it. All you have to do with the Polls module is set the Polls block properties (by clicking the edit link in System Admin\Blocks) to 'Block Type - Side Block Right' (or left) visible in 'All Pages' (so that the Poll selection is always visible throughout the site) and give it a weight value to determine where in your left or right column it shows up. Then, when you click results, XOOPS should automatically display it in your main central column until you navigate elsewhere in the site.
9 times out of ten, with Xoops, you can achieve a result with out touching code. I learnt that the hard way too! There's often a configuration setting somewhere
Good luck.
