My laptop charger isn't working D:?

I Have a Compaq Presario laptop and my charger for it stopped working. I was on facebook and other sites and didn't realize that my battery was running low. The charger had been plugged in, yet it wasn't charging. So, i wiggled the cord around and it work if i held it at a certain point. This worked for only a few seconds and then it stopped charging and wiggling it around wasn't working. So then my laptop shut off and i checked to make sure my outlet was working. I plugged in a lamp and it lit up so i know the outlet is fine. Now my laptop is dead and i really need to use it. Do I need to purchase another charger or is there any way for me to fix this? I prefer not buying another charger atm because i recently broke my Itouch's Wifi and purchased a rather expensive cell phone so i already have a lot to pay for. Is there any solution? Should i leave the laptop alone and take out the batteries for a couple of days and maybe then it'll work? Thank you ! Please answerr

There's clearly a fault on the charger and you can't repair this yourself. So you could send it for repair, but they regard them as disposable and you'll be offered a new one if it's under guarantee, or you'll have to purchase one.

If the charger has one lead that is removeable (like the sort of cable that fits into a radio), and that's the faulty one, you could easily replace that. If it's the other 'fixed' cable, you're out of luck.
