I am not the best at making a exceptionally pretty looking website. I know that by using CSS I can make many of the layout and design issues easy to change and keep them external to the page content.
I am thinking about making a website which is a directory and wanted to know if there was any software for this purpose that is worthwhile. I have seen many sites using gossamer threads and other similar products. Is there any that really stands out as good stuff? I wanted to know if there was any software of this nature that was 1.) well worth is price 2.) made design a decent amount easier |

I was actually looking at software for directories recently. One that looked really nice and easy to use was the Free PHP Directory Script. I didn't try it or anything, but it seemed to have lots of features.
Good luck! Jill |

so all will know they have three different versions of the script
version a and version b are essentially the same thing the only differences are that version b does not require the tag line back to their site and that version b costs either $20/yr or $50 for lifetime license version c is the full version of the script and is a little overpriced in my eyes at $700!!! if they would drop that price down to a few hundred dollars I bet they would actually sell quite a few copies it has a couple nice features such as 3 different levels of submission submission payment via paypal integrated into directory script it creates static pages it stores a backup of the directory allows multiple pathways to a file i am not buying the advanced version yet, but the other version can be installed in less than 10 minutes by a person who does not install stuff! if you do not mind the tagline the script is free |

I've used PHPhoo before and it worked well. It comes out of the box fairly 'Plain Jane' but if you know some CSS, that can be easily remedied. The best part -- it's free (IMG:http://www.highrankings.com/forum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Link Department seems quite good and cheap - either free or $50 for the full version which doesn't have query strings in the URL's
