Hi All I am developing a web site that interacts with a MySQL database. When I run a query and display the records in a web page, this can become a problem because there might be too many records to be displayed in one single web page so I am trying to divide the total number of records and display them in multiple pages. Let's say, if the query returns 100 records then I would like to display the first 10 records and then put a navigation bar where I can go to the next 10 or return to the previous 10 records Is this done at a SQL or PHP level ? any experience on doing this ? Thanks a bunch Eduardo
Eduardo: Yes, look into "LIMIT" in MySQL. Such as: $dbQuery="SELECT $id FROM $dbtable ORDER BY title LIMIT $offset, $rowsPerPage"; Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
