Hi Ed, the error message is helpful but unfortunately I can't relate this to 
the source code as your Share instance is using the compressed version of the 
JavaScript files.

Could you turn on client-side JavaScript debugging as specified in 
http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/kevinr/2010/04/07/developer-tips-for-alfresco-share
-33/ (section Debugging client-side JavaScript) and try the poll again?

You should see the error in your browser then references poll.js instead of 
poll-min.js and a line number should be shown.

Thanks,
Will.

Thanks for the response Will,
I've enabled the client-side debugging.

Error is:
Line: 215
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method

Which is: 
var now = Date.now();

Regards,
Ed.
