Website poll widget · 8 embed styles · One snippet
Embed a poll on your website in one snippet.
Pulseware ships eight embed styles — inline iframe, popover, slide-in, full-width banner, sidebar, modal, button-triggered and floating bubble — built on the same embed engine as Pulseware surveys. Copy a snippet, paste it in your HTML, the poll appears.
No third-party widget bloat · Mobile-first iframe · CSP-safe
Eight embed styles for any page.
One poll, eight ways to surface it. The same engine powers Pulseware survey embeds, so adding a poll to an existing site does not introduce a new dependency.
-
Inline iframe
Drop the poll inline inside an article, landing page, or knowledge-base entry. Resizes to its container.
-
Popover
A button that opens the poll in a centred popover. Good for "give us feedback" prompts on long pages.
-
Slide-in panel
Slides in from the corner after a delay or scroll percentage. The lightest-touch widget.
-
Full-width banner
A bar across the top or bottom of the page hosting a single yes/no or rating question.
-
Right-rail sidebar
For long-form articles. Sticks alongside content on desktop, collapses on mobile.
-
Modal launcher
A floating button that opens a centred modal — same engine as the popover with different chrome.
-
Manual button-triggered
Wire your own button or link to open the poll. Maximum control over when it appears.
-
Floating bubble
A circular chat-style bubble in the corner. Opens the poll on click; closes on outside-click.
The snippet you paste in.
Two lines of HTML. The poll loads inside an iframe so it can never break your CSS, your JS, or your CSP.
-
<div data-pulseware-poll="abc123"></div> <script async src="https://pulseware.com.au/embed.js"></script>
Swap abc123 for the poll slug shown in the dashboard share menu. The script is around 12 KB gzipped and lazy-loads on idle.
Built for Lighthouse, not for trackers.
The Pulseware embed sets no first-party cookies on your domain, no third-party trackers, and no advertising scripts. The loader is deferred so it never blocks LCP, and the iframe is sized via the resize observer so it never causes layout shift. The runner inside the iframe inherits your brand colour, logo, and theme from the poll settings, and the embedded poll meets WCAG 2.2 AA the same way the standalone runner does.
