Ok well after three days of examining various others codes and actually fixing them by myself including chat rooms to integrate into my site in which the original coder could not even get it working I decided to ask for a bit of help instead on this particular thing.
I had searched Google for one thing to get an understanding on why most codes wouldn't work for my version of PHP and it seems because most are old and outdated codes which just need upgrading, Considering I have only been learning simple html/php for a very short period of time and only just started to understand css then I am doing considerably well.
My site consists of a download system, a java chat system, a register system (had to fix that and learn MySql in like several hours or at least the basics of it) background music, server statistics for my on line private mmorpg, and donate system which is probably extremely easy for most of the coders on here but for me a complete novice I feel quite accomplished for what I have gained so far.
I had simply got a little tired of getting stressed out at the code and just needed help for something that albeit shouldn't have worked in the first place did work in the first place lol. Usually the saying is "if it's not broke don't fix it" and all would have been fine just that it decided for whatever reason to just stop working >.<
