 * I’m getting a few deprecated calls:
 * `Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /
   polldaddy/polldaddy-xml.php on line 743`
 * `Notice: attribute_escape is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 2.8! Use
   esc_attr() instead.`

 * I made a patch that fixes the deprecated function calls, removed the PHP4 idiom,
   prevented another undefined variable notice and fixed a few visual glitches:

 * Thanks [@till](https://wordpress.org/support/users/till/), fixing those has been
   on the todo list for quite some time!

 * And I’ve just checked those most of those changes into trunk. I’ve left the CSS
   ones as I have to investigate what each one does.
 * Hopefully we’ll get a new release out this week. Thanks for your help!

 * The CSS changes are based on WP 3.6 and are: 1) hide #wpfooter and adjust margins
   in iframe/popup 2) corrected visual glitches of the answer options in the “save”
   meta box 3) removed fixed height of the “poll style” box
