This is still a work in progress, but I was looking for an Ajax-y rater like this so this really put the crumpet in my tea…Ok, I don’t know what a crumpet is exactly, but I know they go with tea. And they are, apparently, a winning combination. Kinda like this Ajax Rater…yes, yes…that makes sense 
I pretty much solved the problem of getting multiple rating bars on one page (if you wanted to put a rating system in multiple posts on one page, for example) although I’m sure the code is far clunkier than it needs to be. I made the function
<?php rating_bar(‘x’); ?>
where x is the ID.
