waynem801 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Hello, I would like to build a golf course directory like this one example : http://www.golflink.com/golf-courses/state.asp?state=NC It would be for North Carolina Courses, But it would have all the same functions.. It's functions are: Search for a course, Courses Listed by City, And the cities show near by courses. And the courses have a little bit of info... So how can I clone this? I've looked at php scripts that are link directories, but that isn't what i want.. Also It is important that this directory is SEO Friendly with Friendly URL's Thanks, Wayne Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

teng84 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Directory? this is just query string and database manipulation using query string eg.. the state =NY NY will be your search key when querying your DB does that makes sense Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/#findComment-444644 Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynem801 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 Well, here's my site http://www.ncgolfers.com I would consider myself very good at CSS and Design, but when it comes to php, I'm just a hacker, I can take existing scripts and "maybe" hack away a little, but very little... Depending on cost I would love to pay someone to do it, But at the same time... with a little advice it would be great to learn to do it on my own So to your ? Either or really...

Ok I get that much, but how do they have it set up do you suppose? How does one build a Database like the example? maybe that's more of what I'm search for Sometimes it's hard to explain what you're really looking for, when you don't know enough to know what you're lookin for So any advice on how to go about the above example would be wonderful Wayne Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/#findComment-444647 Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 That's a lot of data input. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/#findComment-444650 Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynem801 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 Yeah, i know it's alot of data but it has to be done...

teng84 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'll try to explain.. Query string are the are formated like this http://www.golflink.com/golf-courses/state.asp?state=NC state=NC<----- is your query string to use that u need to do this $_GET['state']<------ now this has the value which is NC now to use that thing to get the data you need by NC you will do something like this select * from state where states = 'NC' <--- thes will return all the info beating NC on them but you still need a database storage for that Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/#findComment-444658 Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynem801 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 I see, so that part is actually the more easy part... It looks like building the database and "the best way to ad data to it" seems to be what's really difficult for me Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86965-how-can-i-build-a-directory-in-php/#findComment-444672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
