"PHP Script Index"
(Uses PHP4, and MySQL)



PHP Script Index allows you to run your own PHP Scripts Directory/Repository. Undoubtedly you've seen HotScripts.com. This script is almost exactly the same as their /PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/ section, except it's a full standalone PHP Index. :)

Visitors can browse through 76 Script Categories which are stored in MySQL, submit their scripts to a particular category, and edit their listing later. All submissions/modifications to listings take place in real-time.

PHP Script Index also has a nice ranking system in which those who submit their scripts to your site are given the HTML code to place a link on their site to yours. Listings in categories and search results are displayed according to how many hits they've sent to your site.

The design and functionality of this script are completely customizable. All table properties, fonts and colors can be specified. You can also specify the header and footer file, to match the design of your current website.

Once you have PHP Script Index up and running, feel free to email me with the URL to your index. Very soon I'll be creating a script for others to submit their scripts to all sites running PHP Script Index. For you, this will give your site more exposure, because links will be given to your site, and your database will grow rapidly.

My reason for making this script free to the public is quite simple. There just aren't enough script indexes out there to submit to! After checking a few sites, I found there were no freely available pre-made scripts that perform this function. There were a few general-purpose repository scripts, mostly for Windows software sites, but none made specifically for PHP. I then decided to take on this task ;)

Commentary: This script lacks a few of the smaller features normally found on other PHP script sites. PHPScriptIndex is intended as a "core" for you to build on. I have no plans on adding more features to this script, but you're free to add your own features if you wish. The script *does* work quite well as it stands now. :)
