I programmend a small dice roller in javascript. You enter the number of dice, sides and the offset and press the button “roll”. The script shows the individual dice and the resulting sum. For convenience, there is a second form where you can just enter the number of dice and press the butten for the type of dice. At the bottom, there are some links of six- and eightsided dice, which are often needed in roleplaying games. You can also create bookmarks for dice, e.g. dice.html?n=3&s=8&o=5 for a 3d8+5 (three eight-sided dice plus five).

The dice roller is at http://andunix.net/pub/dice.html.

  <form name="rolldice" method="GET">

      <input type="submit" value="roll"/>
      <input disabled="true" type="text" name="r" size="4"/>

function roll() {

  var result = offset;

    result += roll;
    rolls += " "+roll;

  document.rolldice.r.value = result;
  document.getElementById("rolls").innerHTML = rolls;
