ok, if you're using mysql you can use the LIMIT function in your statement: SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 0, 30 would show 30 rows starting from row 1. you can set a variable telling your php script how many entries per page you will show:
$showlines = 10; and telling your script where to start the search $start = ($page * showlines) - $showlines; and you're sql should look like: SELECT * FROM table LIMIT $start, $showlines so if you're on page 3, it'll look like this: $start = (3 * 10) - 10 // 20 is our startpoint SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 20, 10 this would show 10 lines starting from line 21 "Chuck "Pup" Payne" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Hi, > > I would to know what is a good example of how to use limits within PHP.
