Hi,

I entered about 300 taxonomy terms in a vocabulary (about 20 categories with 10 subcategories each) and I'm struggling a lot with building a directory the way I want.

I tried almost every module (directory, taxonomy_block, taxonomy_list) available to solve this, but nothing worked.

An example of how it should look is the main page from http://www.dmoz.org/

You see there that there are 3 columns and beneath each term are the subterms, separated by comma.

All I was able to create with the listed modules were one column directories (no grid like in views) and
can't get the subterms separated by commas. They are all <li> enclosed lists which looks pretty ugly with 200 terms.

Is the only way to go to write own PHP-code in a block for this?

Any ideas? Thanks!

Maybe the http://drupal.org/project/directory module?

Yes, I found the directory module today and it almost does what I want. I decided to just copy the module, replaced everthing from directory to mydir2. It uses list_term_nodes which I can overwrite of course and I will also try to copy the views grid thing to do something similar with the listing. Drupal is so powerful! Still learning a lot, but I feel I made the right CMS decision :-)
