Help File updates?
2
There are a couple of things in the Help.html file that have needed fixing for a while now. Easy: The help file refers to a function "IsNumber" but the actual function name is "IsNumeric" Harder: A section on how and where nesting of group calls, functions, and variables is and isn't allowed. In particular, the places where the name of a group, variable, or function can be a string generated by nested group calls, variables, and functions, vs where the name has to be a literal string. It was not obvious to me, until pointed out in a message some years back, that things like [{Param~terrain,%terrain%}] or [Terrain%type%] could be legitimate group calls. I assumed they would always throw errors. -- Erol K. Bayburt ErolB1@...

Timestamp
13
I feel like I may have asked this before, but I'll ask again. I want to add a timestamp to my output so that I can tell if the result is new or a repeat. Is there a simple way to drop it in? I've set up an Oracle for solo gameplay, and the results are often repeated as essentially it's just Yes, No with an occasional variation. I am happy if it just looks like basic chat output. I'll admit that I don't understand full-on CSS. I gave up coding pretty webpages ages ago. Any ideas? Thanks!

Can't seem to make the additional table lookup work.
3
What is the correct path that Tablesmith looks for things when so directed? I am working on some random maps. I was trying to do my own, but then found the map generators. They weren't working because the additional files weren't available. This community was very helpful and I was able to find the maps. Now, however, I can't get the maps to display. Looking at the code for the tables, the directory should be \Graphics\Caverns for the caverns, and \Graphics\D&D Geomorphs for the Geomorphs. I get the broken image token instead. So my question is

Older tables not working
5
Some of the older tables, i.e. MAP Cavern, have reference to IMG SRC="Graphics\Caverns", but neither that directory, nor the img files listed in the .TAB file are available. Does anybody know where these older files might be found? I did look in the FULL download....but to no avail. TIA Scott

Dynamic Probabilities Practical Use Case?
What is the use case that people here use dynamic probabilities for in groups? It seems to me that if a group uses more than just a few dynamic entries, setting up and assigning the variables needed gets very ugly very quickly. So to me it seems like dynamic probabilities is a feature in search of a need. But I'm willing to be enlightened as to how others find it useful. Can someone point me to tables in the files section here that use dynamic probabilities?

I finished uploading all of the individual sub-tables to modify the TableSmith title screen, There are 10 styles to choose from. Since they are graphics heavy I broke the images of each style into it's own zip file. The largest is about 28MB. They can be found in the Graphics file section. The TAB files can be found in the TableSmith Utilities file section. I'm still working on the dashboard that allows you to choose any of the 10 in one table plus the option to add a filter to emulate a book or folio cover. In the meantime, here is how the DnD 4th Ed turned out.

DSFind

Hi ... how can I use {DSFind~} to find one of two things in the same field of a data set? For example, how can I find either "Cold" or "Any Climate" in the same field called "Env" This works to find either "Cold" or "Any Climate" : {DSFind~MonsterTable,%Index%,Env~%ClimateNeeded%} Hope I'm clear enough ... thanks.

Documentation for 5.2?

I am sure that this question has been asked before. Has an updated documtation for Tablesmith 5.2?.

I just put together a small table to pull up a page from Noah Webster's Dictionary (it's a brainstorming technique that works well for me). The URL appears to be well-formed, but when I click on the anchor, a browser comes up with a blank page. But if I paste its URL in my normal Chrome browser, the page loads just fine. I'm wondering if TableSmith's embedded browser is too out of date? Or am I missing something? The code is: %Temp%, %Page%,82 %ReferencePath%,https://archive.org/details/websterscomplete00webs/page/ %PathEnd%,/mode/1up #example generated URL: #https://archive.org/details/websterscomplete00webs/page/1034/mode/1up ;Start 1 ,|Page={Dice~1d1563+81}| _|Temp={Replace~ ,,%ReferencePath% %Page% %PathEnd%}| _Inspiration: <a href="%Temp%" target="Webster">WORD</a> [Quadrant] ;Quadrant 1 ,Upper Left Column 1 ,Upper Right Column 1 ,Lower Left Column 1 ,Lower Right Column 1 ,Upper Center Column 1 ,Lower Center Column

Hi again, Is there a way to jump out of a loop? I don't want to stop the execution of the rest of the group, so "{Stop~Text}" will not work. Scott

Datasets

#error
Hi all New here, so please be kind. Many years experience with TS but I cannot for the love of zark get my head round datasets. I know they create a typed array. But every time I try and use them, I get errors. I understand the syntax as far as it goes but really could do with an example to see where it goes and how to wrap stuff round it I have _{DSCreate~SkillTable,SkillName,-,SkillValue,-1} _{DSRead~SkillTable,TravSkills} and I get ***ERROR on line 39 of table 'MgTrv2-Package-NPCs' - Variable 'SkillTable' in table 'MgTrv2-Package-NPCs' not found in call to 'DSRead'. *** There's a relevant file of data which I think is correct. I tried creating %SkillTable%, and got a different error More info is available; any help much appreciated :) ps tried emailing this in and it seems to have failed, so apologies if I duplicated myself
