Pagenating Array Results (Not MySQL?)

[skot]

Hi. I've just managed to get a flash mp3 player preview working for my music site. The only problem is, at the moment there are 669 results returned on one page. So 670 flash objects are loaded at once!

 

How can I introduce pagenation to an array of returned results? I want to limit results to say, 50 per page, whilst having the ability to move to the next and previous page, etc.

 

Does anyone have a snippet or something that will start me going?

 

The page in question can be seen at http://m.bridgey.net/indexn.php but I wouldn't click it unless you have a decent PC / net connection!

 

Source code follows:-

 

  <?php
  
include ("mcount.php");

function sortByDate($b, $a) {
    if ($a['dateSort'] == $b['dateSort']) {
        return 0;
    }
    return ($a['dateSort'] < $b['dateSort'])? -1 : 1;
}

//Valid extensions
$valid_extensions = array ('mp3', 'wma');
$path = '.';
$dirArray = array();

// set timezone to GMT for all time fields
putenv("TZ=GB/GMT");

// open dir
$myDirectory = opendir($path);

// fetch entries
while($fileName = readdir($myDirectory)) {
  //Only process files
  if (!is_dir($path.'/'.$fileName)) {
    //Only process files with valid extensions
    $ext = strtolower(array_pop(explode(".", ($fileName))));
    if (in_array($ext, $valid_extensions)) {
      $fileIdx = count($dirArray);
  $size = filesize($fileName);
      $totalSize += $size;
      $dirArray[$fileIdx]['name'] = $fileName;
      $dirArray[$fileIdx]['ext'] = $ext;
      $dirArray[$fileIdx]['dateSort'] = date('YmdHi', filemtime($fileName));
      $dirArray[$fileIdx]['date'] = date('d/m/Y @ H:i', filemtime($fileName));
      $dirArray[$fileIdx]['size'] = round((filesize($fileName) / 1024 / 1024), 2);
    }
  }
}
$sizecount = round(($totalSize/ 1024 / 1024), 2);
$sizecountgb = round(($totalSize/ 1024 / 1024 / 1024), 2);

// close dir
closedir($myDirectory);

//Sort by key
usort($dirArray, 'sortByDate');
