The New Al Khamsa Roster Display: HOW TO by the Al Khamsa Database Committee

Celebrate! The 18-month project, of building a replacement Roster Display for the Al Khamsa Pedigree Pages, which had to be replaced, has at long last come to an end. The new system works just like the old system, but it looks different. Some of you may not have used all of the functions that have always been there. So this feature is designed to help you navigate the new pages, and use them in the most efficient way for you personally. As we get the Roster pages more in the public eye, we will continue to refine it to your specifications. This is what you see at the top of the homepage:

“Home” is highlighted because that is the page you are currently viewing. Move your pointer to the right and hover over “Roster”. This is what you will see. The “Pedigree/Breeder Search” option is by far the most valuable and complete way to look for a particular horse, or breeder and all the horses they bred, or all the horses with a particular prefix or suffix. To lookup up the pedigree of a horse where you know the name of the horse, move your pointer down and click on “Pedigree/ Breeder Search”. Below is what you will see after you click.

The “Submit” button is to initiate the search. The “Reset” button is to clear all fields of content. Enter the horse name in the “Enter Horse name (partial name OK)” field. It can be any part of the name you know. The more specific you are the fewer results you will need to browse through. The search is not case sensitive. 40
