gears stuck in 2nd gear, the car seems to still run while the foot is on the clutch, but as soon as u let the clutch out the car stalls, also i notice the gear stick is floppy but only moving forward motion and backward motion, it cant go from right to left as well , not able to change gear to 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th and reverse or even nutual even with the clutch in, will it be a gearbox problem? or sumthing else?

More likely to be a fault with the gear shift linkages and maybe the clutch needs attention. If hydraulic, check the fluid level. If cable, check free play.
