PHP 7 removed the ext/mysql module favoring ext/mysqli or ext/pdo.

l4dstats web does not work as-is on new servers providing PHP 7.
PHP 5 is dying, even if we can still find servers providing it, PHP 7 will replace it.

Reading l4dstats web source code, it seems like attempts had been made to switch between mysql/mysqli , but never used. Huge parts of code still hardcode ext/mysql usage, thus turning any code change into a nightmare. At least, lots of motivation is needed to patch it.
