This code introduces a few new concepts, so let's step through it.
:::php
```php
$submissions = new GroupedList(BrowserPollSubmission::get());
```
First we get all of the `BrowserPollSubmission` records from the database. This returns the submissions as a `[api:DataList]`.Then we wrap it inside a `[api:GroupedList]`, which adds the ability to group those records. The resulting object will behave just like the original `DataList`, though (with the addition of a `groupBy()` method).
:::php
```php
$total = $submissions->Count();
```
We get the total number of submissions, which is needed to calculate the percentages.
:::php
```php
$list = new ArrayList();
foreach($submissions->groupBy('Browser') as $browserName => $browserSubmissions) {
$percentage = (int) ($browserSubmissions->Count() / $total * 100);

Now we create an empty `[api:ArrayList]` to hold the data we'll pass to the template. Its similar to `[api:DataList]`, but can hold arbitrary objects rather than just DataObject` instances. Then we iterate over the 'Browser' submissions field.

Here we first check if the *BrowserPollForm* is returned, and if it is display it. Otherwise the user has already voted,
and the poll results need to be displayed.
