Nadaka's DiceBox (Database Version II)

Directions.

Add roll to database.

Enter your user Name in the topmost textbox, this should uniquely identify you or your character (characters beyond 20 will be truncated). Enter the number of dice in the left most textbox (before the 'D'). (mandatory, min 1, max 32767). Enter the size of the die in the center textbox (between the 'D' and the '+'). (mandatory, min 1, max VARIABLE). Enter a number added to or subtracted from the die result (after the '+'). (mandatory, Defaults to 0, min -2147483648, max VARIABLE). Enter a brief description of your roll in the bottom-most box. (optional, characters beyond 100 will be truncated. Click on the "Submit your roll." button to add the roll to the database and be shown the results. The "Clear all fields." button will reset all fields to thier default. Notes: Large Numbers of dice will result in excessive load times (as much as a minute or two), for best results use fewer than a thousand dice at a time. The maximum value for the size of dice and the number added to dice is 2147483647, The actual maximum is interdependant on all 3 values. The maximum possible value for a die roll (Number of dice * Size of Dice + Add to Dice) is 2147483647. Note that only the first 100 characters of the die results are stored in the database, this means that at most you can store 50 individual dice. However, all dice are added into the total (that is stored in the database).

Search for roll(s).

If you wish to search for rolls by a particular user name: Select the radio button option "Seach for rolls by user name: "(default option) Then enter the name in the text box in the middle. And then click on the "Find roll(s)." button. If you wish to search for a particular roll by its number: Select the radio button option "Search for a roll by number: " Then enter the number in the text box in the middle. And then click on the "Find roll(s)." button. The "Clear Fields." button resets everything to its defaults.

Find Roll(s).

After seaching for a roll, you will arrive at the "Find roll(s)." page. This page displays all the stored details of the die roll. Above the table a link to all rolls under this username is displayed. If the page is displaying a die roll by number (such as after adding a roll), above that link there will be a link to that specific roll. In the table: Roll# is the roll number, it uniquely identifies each roll. User Name is the name under wich the roll was made ("" or empty string has been used by many different users). Dice is the number of dice used (D) size of dice used (+) and the number added to(or subtracted from) the roll. Total is the sum of all dice rolls plus the number added to the roll. Results are the actual numbers rolled. The results are stored in a text field of 100 characters. So the maximum number of dice displayed will be 50 (if all dice rolls are single digits). Description is a note or comment on the roll, commonly used to explain the purpose of the roll to others that may view it. Date/Time is the date and time that the roll was made.
