Could some one help me???

Okay I'm still new to rmxp and I am looking for a way to do a few things. First I want to know how to show health and magic below or above a sprite. Next I was looking for a way to make my window size larger and show stats on the edge of the screen. Is there any way to make this into a mmo? Please help me, Thanx.

~About the game~

I am trying to make a game that functions like the old zelda games, no battle scenes, and I would like to put it online like a mmo if that is at all possible. I have worked out a lot of the simple things, like aquiring new spells and casting them but I am still new to the script editor. My biggest consern is how to display health of every sprite ( Its dificult to tell if you will be able to kill it or will need to run and heal) If any one has any ideas or if you are not sure what I'm trying to get at plz let me know. Thanks
 
ok, so if you don't know how to make health bars with scripting, you will never be able to make an MMO. The knowledge that you need of scripting is like a top level programmer.

As for your battle system. If you want a legend of zelda style battle system, then look into the XAS battle system. Just run a search on this site for it and you'll find it.

As for making the window larger, here you are once again getting into really high level scripting. However putting a menu on the side wouldn't be to difficult, you are just looking into a HUD then, right? Once again, just search the site for it and you'll find it.

Now, putting the health bars and such atop or below a player in this battle system will get really cluttered. So I'd suggest looking at the system first. You may find that you actually don't need it.

Hope this helps!
