I really think you should stop now and read some of the stuff mikesta707 gave you in his post. Don't look at his code it will probably just confuse you. If you want to create a website in php you have to know php and some basics of web programming and by web programming I mean the redirecting and error pages. Please do yourself a favor and try and learn some of that stuff first before you attempt to create your site. If you don't your site will be a mess and you will be rewriting it every time you learn how to do something the proper way. Good luck!!

You could also try to cache the page and serve that instead of connecting to mysql again or use something like memcache

Try to sell a service and not the code. If you do sell the code it will probably get show up somewhere else. I remember reading a story like this somewhere. Good luck with your product.

Try Magento, ZendCart or OScommerce. Magento is the hardest one to grasp but I think it's very powerful.

Dude!! Use the code tags.. and summarize the code or something I am not going to read through all that code

Just when you die!

I was going to ask almost the same thing. Guess there is no point

Is it only me that hates people that thrash php because they prefer to use C# or Java? I was having this discussion with two colleagues at work and it really irritated me how they dismissed php, just because of it not having Visual Studio as it's main ide. One of them also remarked that besides java being faster nobody uses php for security, saying that no bank site or big web shop site uses php. This really really irritates me. For the ide part I know that Zend studio and PhPed are really good ide's. And I don't see any thing on the web saying that java or c# are faster than php. Does anyone know any bank sites or big e-commerce sites that use php? Just so that I can't tell them that php is still used in many places, just because they don't know about it doesn't mean there aren't sites that use php.

Start by learning php like corbin said. Trying to create a game is hard. Trying to create a game in a language you don't really understand is practically impossible. Many of the errors you reported here are really newbie errors, and as you said you are a newbie so start by doing newbie stuff and not a game. Try creating a game a few years from now, when you are really comfortable with php and javascript.

I think it's a bit obvious that he is trying

In the 'cat' part there is a <tr> that you are not closing, it's the first one. In else while you are echoing one <tr> and inside you echo I don't know how many </tr>'s (depends on what the $getcategories->fetchrow() returns you) Check does and maybe you'll have your problem fixed

But why preload 300 avatars if the users picks the first or second?

Also try to use ajax so when going to the next 20 or 50 you don't have to reload the entire page

We don't know what the ajaxpage functions does (We can presume yes, but we still need to see the code).
