Deimon, did you copy and paste the source code from the BoxTorrents FAQ for the most part? Most of that HTML in their wasn't needed.

Yeah, hence the statement that it still needs some cleaning. I'm not finished yet (needed to go afk a while) but it's not a lot which needs to be cleaned, and it's better than just copy paste part by part, I used "Replace All" on many codes like links and such, making it all easier.

Good deal. Although, I think I got most of it already...
