i am relitivly new to DnD, but picking up fast, i started with the v3.0 players hand book, but it doesnt tell me the hardness or hp of any armor, just items and shields, do any of you know were i can find a list of some sort telling me what they are for armors? and 2nd, if i have armor that says say, 5% to arcane failure, what does that mean?

It is in the DMG, and also in the SRD (See the link in my SIG)

On a somewhat diffrent note; can you attack someone's armor in comparison to attacking them, if they are wearing it?

. . . the hardness or hp of any armor

Hardness depends on the material the armor is made of, leather/hide has hardness 2, iron has hardness 10 and bronze has hardness 9.

The HP of the armor are equal to the armor bonus X5.

if i have armor that says say, 5% to arcane failure, what does that mean?

You roll d% and if you roll 1-5, then any spell you are casting that has a somatic component is lost (and you waste an appropriate spell-casting slot for the day).

Sundering worn armor? I think I've read that you can't.

No.
