displaying records from a query limited by quantity 2

[mufka]

Let's say I have a query that contains 100 records. I want to display those records x per page with navigation forward and backward through the records. I'd like to have an option for the x value. The problem that I see is that I don't know how to reference the query once I've navigated off the first page. I need some sort of pointer to know where it left off so the next page can start there.

The records are the result of a query so they won't be consecutive or anything like that.

Can this be done?

I don't have any yet. I'm starting from scratch. I'm in the planning stages.

The display should be pretty easy, I'm just concerned about the navigation. That's where I need ideas.

Hi

If you have nothing then almost anything will work. Just google for "php pager" and pick one.

That helps. I would never have thought of that as a search term.

You can also look at the example here in the FAQ. faq434-5244

Good to know. That's pretty much what I ended up doing.
