Page Navigation

[Guest_imported]

Hi,
I am facing a problem in navigating the resultset or rather to put it in simple terms, how to do page navigation
in JSP ie if there are 100 recs and we want to show only
10 recs in one page then how do we proceed?

Try an URL parameter (like "startingrecord&quot. If it does not exist (was not passed, happens the first time the page is called) set it to 0, otherwise just go to that record (with

rs.next()

in a

for(int i = 0; i < startingrecord; i++)

with the startingrecord parameter from the URL). Then just display the next ten (or whatever) results.
You can then create links that are:

a) conditional (print only if there are previous or additional entries)
b) decreasing / increasing the URL parameter by the amount of data displayed

Don't ask me about how to get URL parameters in JSP... :~/ ...I once did this in ASP, have a look at:

Hope this helps
