Free php directory script

    i use the Free php directory script from biz directory and was wondering how do u mod it so it shows subcategries underneath the main categories instaed of having to click main cat to view sub cat.

    also is there a way to display how many links are in each cat like dmoz and other directories do?

    Hey there,

    I had this same question a few weeks ago but got no response to my post. I found that the subcategories show up at The Directory Archives so I e-mailed the directory owner about it. I also e-mailed the contact person on the page for the free php directory script. What I found out was that the subcats used to show but that it makes for slower loading of the directory so it was removed from the current downloadable versions. The owner of The Directory Archives was nice enough to send me a copy of his original ZIP file that he downloaded so that I could try it with the subcategories though. I haven't had a chance yet but hope to this weekend. I'm hoping I can just load it and connect it to my existing database instead of starting totally from scratch. PM me if you would like to try the old version.

    You can probably figure a way to use mysql_nuw_rows to count the number of links in each category.

    Each link is probably saved into the DB with a category ID or soemthin and just count all the links with each specific category ID.
