I have a glass carboy I have cold crashed for the past 24 hours. When bottling how much sugar should I boil in how much water to carb a 5 gallon batch of IPA. I only have table sugar.

No problem, that link wasnt even the one I intended when I google searched it (I think it was the tastybrew one that BF recommended), but I think it is very information. Now I have it saved on my favorites! Way to teach an old dog (okay Im 25) new tricks.
 
The tasty brew one is a good calculator. You can set how much carbonation from the min-max listed for the chosen style. I mix it with 2C of boiled water & stir till the water clears again. Then cover it,& set it in front of my 12" turbo fan & it cools to pitch temp in about 10mins. Then proceed as normal in the ol' bottling bucket.
