		function mysqliLoaded(){
			if (extension_loaded('mysqli')) {
				echo "<span class=\"yes\">Yes</span>";
			}else{echo "<span class=\"no\">No</span>";}
		}

Did you do a phpinfo() to see if the 'mysqli' table was still listed? Alternatively, you could try doing:

<?php
$test = new MySQLi;
?>

If you don't get a fatal error (or if 'mysqli' is still showing in a phpinfo() output), then you didn't turn it off.
