roll table that rolls on another roll table?

Hello, I'm sure this has been answered but I couldn't find it and excuse my very limited knowledge of scripts in general.. I built a rollable table and assigned weights to each entry.  If one specific entry comes up, I'd like it to automatically roll on a new table and produce the result too.  How do I do this?  I am a pro user so I have access to add API scripts.  Thanks.

With the API, you can do that with the RecursiveTable script.
Ok, here's what I have.. which obviously isn't right.  "MAGIC" is the table I want to roll first and the entry from that table that I want to trigger the rolling of the "Supercharged" table is called "a Supercharged Spell!".  Help?  Again, I apologize for my lack of knowledge.. [[1t[MAGIC] ]] !rt[Delimiter:BR|PrefaceUniqueSpace] &{template:default}{{name=a Supercharged Spell!}}[[1t[Supercharged]]]

Your MAGIC table would need to be written in terms of your Supercharged table, for example, your rows in it might look like: Your spell is blue Your spell creates the smell of roses Your spell creates [[1d100]] butterflies [[1t[Supercharged]]] Then you'd just call it like !rt[Delimiter:BR|PrefaceUniqueSpace] &{template:default}{{name=A Spell!}}{{Result=[[1t[MAGIC]]]}} And depending on your weighting, you'll sometimes get a Default template with a Result row that has "Your spell is blue" in it, or perhaps the result of calling [[1t[Supercharged]]]. You can get more creative with the results by including template syntax in your table rows.
Thanks so much for the help, is there a way to broadcast it in normal chat rather than whisper it?
