Random Encounter Help

Hello, I may be missing the answer to my question, but I cannot find it anywhere. I am trying to create a Macro that will show my different Random Encounter Tables as links in the chat for me to click on and roll from. I have seen something similar with some of the shaped macros, but am trying to do this for Random Encounters. Basically, I want to dump both Forest and Desert Random Encounter tables into the game, and depending on where the party is be able to click a link in chat to roll for the encounter. Thanks for your help.
I have macro in my game to roll for random encounter result tables, but I use query instead of chat command Rolls for random encounter [[ 1t[?{Area|arctic1|arctic2|coastal1|coastal2|desert1|desert2|forest1|forest2|grassland1|hill1|hill2|mountain1|mountain2|swamp1|swamp2|underdark1|underdark2|elemental1|elemental2|construct1|construct2|fiend1|fiend2|undead1|undead2|urban1|urban2}] ]]
Thanks! This seemed to work, but it is not giving me the table results after I roll. Simply shows  Phil (GM):(To GM) rolling 2 2 = 2 instead of the result 2d4 giant poisonous snakes any ideas?

Inline rolls don't normally work within Rollable Table rolls; you can work around this limitation with the help of the RecursiveTables API Script.
You sir, are a scholar and a gentleman! Thank you very much for the help
