All that would get me on the right track would be to use an individual puzzle file for 4 to 6 rounds max. Since there are normally 4 rounds (1st being a $100 puzzle, 2nd being $200, 3rd being $300, and 4th and subsequent rounds being $400 each), and 5 passwords per puzzle (4 clues maximum for each), it would possibly get me on the right track if even just the code for the retrieving puzzle file and the first password of the round (with 4 clues max) be done so far.

Just to refresh:

mister,mister,mr,mr., <== Answer to puzzle
coffee,coffee, <== First Password
none,none,none,none, <== Forms of the password (if needed)
folgers,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
sanka,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
caffeine,coke,coffee,coke,insomnia,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
cappuccino,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
beans,kidneys,kidneys,jelly,vegetable,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
espresso,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
java,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,coffee,
^^Red words are the clues given, and the player must key in the attempt to identify the password, and if the player gives the word shown on the second row (coffee, in this case), that player can have a chance at solving the puzzle.

BTW, I can code the images and display the password later on.
