Understanding Macro HTML

Ok so basically I need a macro for drop down menu that will for example ask What DIce do you want to roll d4, d6,d8, etc then ask how many and allow a custom value. How do I do this? I tried to use the Macro Wiki but to be honest it looks like gibberish to me. Please help! If someone could make me a fill in the blank macro w/ comments on how each section works that would be awesome. Thanks for your time!

what i do is use [[ ]] any combo works in side this 1d4 1d20+3 you name it. 

I know how to do standard rolls, Im wanting a Drop down menu then a Custom value on how many dice in a Query

I have this little macro using the default template. &{template:default} {{name=?{How Many Dice Rolled?|1}?{Die Type?|d20|d6|d10|d8|d4|d12|d100|Advantage,*2d20kh1|Disadvantage,*2d20kl1} + ?{Any Modifiers?|0} roll}} {{Result=[[?{How Many Dice Rolled?}?{Die Type?}+?{Any Modifiers?}]]}} that should give you a query for the number of dice and a dropdown for which die type, and then a query for any additional modifiers. Enjoy!

Cool just what I needed.

Question not to be a burden but is there anyway to do this in the simple template? Purely a cosmetic thing.

Give this a shot: &{template:simple} {{normal=1}} {{rname=Rolling ?{How Many Dice Rolled?|1}?{Die Type?|d20|d6|d10|d8|d4|d12|d100|Advantage,*2d20kh1|Disadvantage,*2d20kl1}}} {{mod=?{Any Modifiers?|0}}} {{r1=[[ ?{How Many Dice Rolled?}?{Die Type?} + (?{Any Modifiers?}) ]]}}
