$dice6="<img src='dice6.png'>";

?>
<?php
$roll=rand(1, 6);
echo "<h2>You roll a $roll</h2>";

<?php
//displaying pics with respect to random roll generated
if ($roll==1) print $dice1;
elseif ($roll==2) print $dice2;

elseif ($roll==5) print $dice5;
elseif ($roll==6) print $dice6;
else print "";
?>
<br>
<br>
<?php
//number of attempt before game over
for ( $attempt<=5;
$attempt=0;
$attempt++
)
?>
<?php
if ($guess != $roll){ echo <<<HERE
<form method="post"
action="">
<table>

<input type="text"

Can you explain more how the game is played,
is the guessing consecutive for a player, I mean,
does a player guess 5 times consecutively...?

You can use the $_SESSION global variable to store the number of attempt the user made. wink

, i would advice you store your die images in and array.

It run on my pc. Do you know that there are some images invove

Re: Help On Php Code For A Dice Game by jacob05(m): 9:18pm On Sep 29, 2012

The images aren't the issue but the undefined variables $hdncounter and $
hdnboxcounter. you really need improve your code. You can start by using an array for storing the images and also making use of the $_SESSION global variable instead of using hidden form values to store counts. wink
