What
is DWodp pro?: DWodp pro is a commercial PHP, MySQL
and Perl powered program for a local web directory. Using
a set of Perl scripts you can import the Open Directory's
RDF dumps into MySQL and then retrieve and search using
PHP.
You have full control over the easy to edit templates so
you can intergrate DWodp pro into your own site design easily.
DWodp pro makes use of Netscape's Open Directory RDF dumps
which currently contains around 4.4 million websites and
610,000 categories. From the shell you can run four Perl
(or command line PHP) scripts which will import the RDF
dumps into your MySQL database. The ODP database is free
to use so long you follow their license.

web into your own site design, now even the individual
