Developing a bare bones Star Frontiers 1st Edition Character sheet

I am trying to come up with a very barebones character sheet for Star Frontiers—the original boxset rules. I do not have much experience with this, but after reading the wiki entries and looking over the basic sheets available, I have come up with an elementary sheet. I am trying to figure out how to have a roll for entered text. I understand how to roll if the die does not change: <label>STRENGTH </label><input type="text" name='attr_char_strength' class='sheet-short'>  <button type='roll' name='roll_testattack' value='&{template:default} {{name=@{character_name}}} {{Strength=[[1d100<@{char_strength}]]}}'>STR</button> But how would I do it if the value is being entered like below: <fieldset class="repeating_weapons"> <input type="text" name="attr_weapon"/> Damage <input type="text" name="attr_dmg"/> Basic # to Hit <input type="text" name="attr_hit"/> </fieldset> Any suggestions are appreciated. tegeus.

Is your button in the fieldset as well? or is it outside of the fieldset?

I tried this: <fieldset class="repeating_weapons"> <input type="text" name="attr_weapon"/> Damage <input type="text" name="attr_dmg"/> Basic # to Hit <input type="text" name="attr_hit"/> <button type='roll' name='roll_testattack' value='&{template:default} {{name=@{character_name}}}{Attack=[[1d100]]}'></button> </fieldset> That put a button on the sheet. But the button did nothing. I wanted to be able to make a 1d100 roll and compare it to a value.

You've got a small typo in the macro value; only a single curly bracket around the attack field should be: <fieldset class="repeating_weapons"> <input type="text" name="attr_weapon"/> Damage <input type="text" name="attr_dmg"/> Basic # to Hit <input type="text" name="attr_hit"/> <button type='roll' name='roll_testattack' value='&{template:default} {{name=@{character_name}}}{{Attack=[[1d100]]}}'></button> </fieldset> So, you were probably getting just the name field displaying. The roll was still happening, but since the field wasn't formatted correctly it wasn't displaying.

Thanks. How would I write the code so that a player could enter a value (say 1d10) and then the button would roll that value?

You'd use a roll query. See the wiki for full information on the chat syntax.
