how can I do this?

I have a search page that pulls up a group of users. You then click on a user name and it take you to a more detailed page. I am using an array with all the users pulled in the search and then passing it in a session to the next page so I can do a Previous & Next.

 

When I do that it currently always starts with the 1st user in the array. I want it to go to the user selected, so if the 3rd user is selected then their info opens. How can I do that?

 

some code from page one (not sure what may be needed it has a lot of code)

 

search here

while ($r=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
  $userID=$r["userID"];
  $aUserIDs[] = $userID;

  if (0 < $c && 0 == $c % $cells_wide){

  echo "<div id='profiles'>
        <a href='test1.php?userID=$r[userID]'>
        <div id='name'>$userID</div> ";

  $c++;
} // end of while

}// end search results
}
$_SESSION['userID']=$aUserIDs;

 

this is the 2nd page

 

<?php
session_start(); // start up your PHP session!
?>

<!-- html code goes in here -->

<?php

    include('library/login.php');
    login();

    mysql_select_db('test');
        
    foreach($_SESSION['userID'] as $key=>$value)
        {
        // and print out the values
        echo 'The value of $_SESSION['."'".$key."'".'] is '."'".$value."'".' <br />';
        }

    echo "
        <div id='content'>
        <div id='box'><h2>Edit Profile</h2>
            <div id='navigation'>
            <a href='search.php' title='Log Details'>Back to Search</a>

             <a href='search.php' title='Billing'>New Search</a> 
            <img src='img/lineSep_2.jpg' width='1' height='21'>";

    // Get the current page 
    $currentPage = trim($_REQUEST

---

);

    // Pagination settings
    $perPage = 1;
    $numPages = ceil(count($_SESSION['userID']) / $perPage);
    if(!$currentPage || $currentPage > $numPages)
        $currentPage = 0;

    $start = $currentPage * $perPage;
    $end = ($currentPage * $perPage) + $perPage;

    // Extract ones we need
    foreach($_SESSION['userID'] AS $key => $val)
    {
        if($key >= $start && $key < $end)
            $pagedData[] = $_SESSION['userID'][$key];
    }

    if($currentPage > 0 && $currentPage < $numPages)
        echo ' <A href="?page=' . ($currentPage - 1) . '">« Previous</A> ';

    if($numPages > $currentPage && ($currentPage + 1) < $numPages)
        echo ' <A class=right href="?page=' . ($currentPage + 1) . '">Next »</A> ';

    foreach($pagedData AS $item)
        $result = mysql_query("SELECT userID, user.city
                               FROM user
                               WHERE userID = '$item'") or die(mysql_error());

        while ($r=mysql_fetch_array($result))
            {
                $userID=$r["userID"];
                $city=$r["city"];
            }
            echo "<br><br> $userID, $city ";
?>

I think it may have something to do with searching the array and I can do that but not sure how to pass that info on

 

modified 2nd page code

 

<?php
session_start(); // start up your PHP session!
?>

<!-- html code goes in here -->

<?php

    include('library/login.php');
    login();

    mysql_select_db('harkly');

    $userID=$_GET["userID"];

// searching the array ($_SESSION['userID']
echo "passing - $userID <br><br>";

$selectedUser = array_search($userID, $_SESSION['userID']); // $key = 2;
echo "Key - ";
print_r($selectedUser);
echo "<br><Br>";
print_r(array_values($_SESSION['userID']));


// brings up all the users info and sets the Previou & Next links
echo "<br><Br>";

    foreach($_SESSION['userID'] as $key=>$value)
        {
        // and print out the values
        echo 'The value of $_SESSION['."'".$key."'".'] is '."'".$value."'".' <br />';
        }

    echo "
        <div id='content'>
        <div id='box'><h2>Edit Profile</h2>
            <div id='navigation'>
            <a href='search.php' title='Log Details'>Back to Search</a>

    // Get the current page
    $currentPage = trim($_REQUEST

);

    // Pagination settings
    $perPage = 1;
    $numPages = ceil(count($_SESSION['userID']) / $perPage);
    if(!$currentPage || $currentPage > $numPages)
        $currentPage = 0;

    $start = $currentPage * $perPage;
    $end = ($currentPage * $perPage) + $perPage;

    // Extract ones we need
    foreach($_SESSION['userID'] AS $key => $val)
    {
        if($key >= $start && $key < $end)
            $pagedData[] = $_SESSION['userID'][$key];
    }

    if($currentPage > 0 && $currentPage < $numPages)
        echo ' <A href="?page=' . ($currentPage - 1) . '">« Previous</A> ';

    if($numPages > $currentPage && ($currentPage + 1) < $numPages)
        echo ' <A class=right href="?page=' . ($currentPage + 1) . '">Next »</A> ';

                               FROM user
                               WHERE userID = '$item'") or die(mysql_error());

        while ($r=mysql_fetch_array($result))
            {
                $userID=$r["userID"];
                $city=$r["city"];
            }
            echo "<br><br> $userID, $city ";
