Object::create(text,Name)

Seems odd - Name should be a varchar object rather then a text field. In your BrowserPollSubmission.php is your name database field a varchar field.

hi,

No, here is my BrowserPollSubmission class. The fields in the actual DB are both mediumtext. These were created by SS.

<?
/*
	Browser Poll Submission
*/

class BrowserPollSubmission extends DataObject{
	static $db = array(
		'Name' => 'text',
		'Browser' => 'text',
	);
}
?>

I think thats your problem

      'Name' => 'text', 
      'Browser' => 'text', 

1: You should use Varchar(200) since your not going to need a whole massive Text field type for name - Text fields are more for storing up to 4mb of text

2: Datatypes / Classnames are always UpperCamelCase. So varchar => Varchar and text would be Text.
