My screen on my LCD monitor got messed up today(cause of a ball hitting it) . Something that looked very much like a spider web showed on the screen and it does'nt go away. I think the screen glass may have broken or something cause i actually managed to hit it with a ball(not with purpose of course), so i think the glass inside has broken, but the outside looks fine. Maybe some dead pixels or something?? I have no idea!! Please help and just ask if theres something you don't understand...my english is VERY bad!! What I really want to know is if I have to get a new screen or if i can send in for repair??

It's broken. It needs a new LCD panel. Get it fixed or replace it.
There seems to be a bit of misinformation on LCDs in the answers here:
The order in an LCD panel is
A plastic layer on the top, usually with an anti-reflective coating. This is to keep the glass in place if it breaks.
Next you may have a prismatic filter to improve the viewing angle the panel.
Next is the top polarizer, then the colour filters that convert each trio of sub-pixels into red green and blue.
Then you have the top glass This is kept a fixed distance from the bottom glass and the space between the two is filled with the actual liquid crystal.
Under the bottom glass you have another polarizer.
And finally the backlight waveguide.
Because of the top layers of plastic over the glass you will not feel the edges of the break. But because the electrodes are layed down on the glass when it breaks it also breaks the connections to them, so you get all sorts of weird patterns when the glass breaks.

behind the liquid crystal display layer is a layer of thin glass. it can be broken and your only recourse is to replace either the whole monitor, or the lcd screen.

a ball into the screen will damage your pixels . If the "spider" stays there..I am afraid you'll need a new one...Sorry...

Well, the liquid crystal in that part of the monitor could've spilled, but if that glass is ok, then it has to be the liquid crystal. Contact your monitor's manufacturer.
