Hi,
I am wondering if there is any plan to support RFC 2696 "LDAP Control Extension for Simple Paged Results Manipulation".
LDAP has a problem that most/all servers aren't designed to handle large result sets. Some servers are set so that the largest result sets they can handle are as small as 100 entries. LDAP paging gets around this by allowing you to retrieve multiple chunks of $RESULT_SIZE until you have all the entries that your search produced.
This has obvious benefits in an LDAP environment and I'm hoping that there is some way to get support included in PHP.
Thanks for any help / information.
Yours,
Gary
