Is not extremely expensive. Has easy to customize templates that use valid XHTML and CSS. Offers good support. Allows including businesses without urls. Allows to give each listed business a descriptive page with picture included. Html editor in ACP for editing Categories and Business descriptions. Php based I´m setting up a local directory for pet related businesses like pet shops, vets etc. Many of those don´t have a website. I want to be able to include them, and be able to give each of them a complete page that shows when clicked on for instance [See more]. This page should have html layout and include picture. I want to be able to make and edit those pages from the admin area, using html editor. It will be a free directory and the idea is that users can´t include their own links, so included paying facilities are not of mayor importance. Who can suggest a script? At the moment I´m testing Phpld3.2.0 so that one I know of allready.
http://www.freeglobes.net Great directory, free comes in french and english, suppoort in english, languages in language files etc...
the best directory script is php link directory paid version. you can also try indexu as an alternative
phplynx is probably the best out there and one you don't need to modify to meet your needs like the rest. I'ts also getting its first translation into Spanish but guess coming from Spain you won't need that. No disrespect to directory scripts like phpld and esyndicat they are okay scripts but they are limited on features out of the box. Don't take my word for it though look at this comparison chart. good luck whatever script you use.
