sometimes when i go to a website i get a popup that says something about an error and if i want to debug it. if i click yes microsofts debugging software somes on, but usually i have to break the debugging. what am i even debugging? and what should i do when i get those popup alerts?
The facility is there to assist the web designer with correcting errors in the web page design. If it's not your website and you're not in control of the html code on the page, there's not too much use in you debugging it at all.
Also check that the popups are genuinely from the browser and not a popup advert/malware installer.

Whenever I search for PHP source level debugging, it seems to point me to either Xdebug or Zend. But I can never seem to find a current, valid set of instructions on setting it up.
I want to do source level debugging of my PHP code, on my Mac OS X 10.5.6, MacBook Pro. Has anyone actually succeeded at this themselves?
I don't have time to look into this in detail, but I DO have this working on my Mac setup.
You need to install the Xdebug extension on your web server. Then grab MacGDBp:

It's a beautiful front-end that will let you walk through your PHP scripts, set breakpoints, etc.
Here's the help page that explains how to set it up:

The debugging menu is a menu where u can add items and enemies to stages. You can also alter stages and players moves. Its basically a menu where you can redevelope the game, or something to that effect.
well the only way to do that is to do practice , play Versus Mode or use codebreaker, or Action Replay to get items or alter stages and moves. with codebreaker or action replay u also get to play as hand boss lol.. But to get a codebreaker or action replay it cost 40 dollars so i think u are better of playing the game normaly :P or with someone and icreasing the item rate.

Every time I play it asks if I want to debug. I say no and it comes back later while playing. If i say yes I get the debug window and I choose run debug, but nothing. I have Vista Windows on this computer.
maybe the window shows a check box where you can put in : don't show this message again.
Or maybe it's because you have Vista. Not too sure.

JavaScript Debugging Techniques in IE 6
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 6 is almost universally hated by web developers. It’s hard to work with and support, but with a few solid techniques, you can make the process less painful. What “just works” in the majority of browsers will almost always require hours of tweaks and workarounds to get it working in IE6. With more and more users switching over to newer alternatives such as IE8, Safari and Firefox hopefully support for IE6 can be dropped sooner rather than later. In the mean time though many of us have to make sure our sites work in this awful browser.

To make things worse, IE6 is extremely bad at helping developers diagnose problems. When a JavaScript error occurs, IE6’s default behaviour is to display a small error icon in the status bar. Extremely easy to miss!

Double clicking on this icon will display a popup, and if you then click the “Show Details” button you’ll get the actual details of the JavaScript error. Unfortunately the detailed error message can be quite cryptic, and probably not too much help in diagnosing the actual problem. Your best bet is to make a note of the line and column number of the problem and then look that up in the source code. Fortunately, with the help of Visual Studio and by changing a few IE settings, we can make it much easier on ourselves.
Setting things up
To enable JavaScript debugging in IE we need to change some default settings, which can be accessed from the Tools> Internet Options menu, and then the Advanced tab. The image below shows the default IE6 settings, with the three settings we’re interested in highlighted.
