Adding Page Navigation to Record Set

yandoo · May 20, 2007

Hi there,

I have gone through the tutorial on php freaks for adding page navigation to records. I am in the middle of integrating the page navigation and have stuck on 2 areas. if anybody could help me out id be most greatful.

Heres where im at....

1)

I have a page which displays a set of records (limited to 6 per page)

Below,is the Next and Previous navigation text bUt it is not hyperlinked!!!??

The line of code specifically is:

<?php

echo("<a href=\"$PHP_SELF&page=$pageprev\">PREV".$limit."</a> "); - This should be hyper-linked but is not??

I think there could be a problem with the <href bit being AFTER the <?php. I am basing this on the fact that a previous record i made began the hyper-link <href BEFORE the <?php where as before the <?php was added only after :

2) Other problem is only small as i'm trying to put the Previous and Next page navigation hyperlinks so they are side by side! I tried echoing new table but didnt show it at all.

Please see screen shot of what page looks like and below is copy of code for it:

<?php

$limit = 6;

$query_count = "SELECT count(*) FROM teachersname";

$result_count = mysql_query($query_count);

$totalrows = mysql_num_rows($result_count);

if(empty($page)){

$page = 1;

}

$limitvalue = $page * $limit - ($limit);

$query = "SELECT * FROM teachersname WHERE " . $_POST['field'] . " LIKE '%$find%' LIMIT $limitvalue, $limit";

$result = mysql_query($query) or die("Error: " . mysql_error());

if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 0){

echo("Nothing to Display!");

}

?>

body,td,th {

font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 12px;

}

-->

</style></head>

<body>

<?php

//check if the user entered data in the form

if (isset($_POST['find'])) {

//data has been entered so lets search the mofo

echo "<h2>Results</h2><p>";

// sanitise the data

$find = strtoupper($_POST['find']);

$find = strip_tags($_POST['find']);

$find = trim ($_POST['find']);

//connect to the db

//mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "winn3rs") or die(mysql_error());

//mysql_select_db("laptop_loan_database") or die(mysql_error());

//Now we search for our search term, in the field the user specified

// $query = "SELECT * FROM teachersname WHERE " . $_POST['field'] . " LIKE '%$find%'" ;

$data = mysql_query($query);

//And we display the results

while($result = mysql_fetch_array( $data ))

{

echo"<table width=\"200\" border=\"0\" class=\"border_bottom\"> \n";

echo "<tr> \n";

echo "<td> </td> \n";

echo "</td> \n";

echo "</tr> \n";

echo "<tr> \n";

echo "<td>"; echo "<strong>Client Name</strong>"; echo "</td>";

echo "<td width=\"75\" style =\"text-align: left\""; ?> <em><a href="search_client_details.php?recordID=<?php echo $result['Client']; ?>"><?php echo $result['Client']; ?> </a></em> <?php echo " </td> \n";

echo "</tr> \n";

echo "<tr> \n";

echo "<td>"; echo "<strong>Department Code</strong>"; echo "</td>";

echo "<td>"; echo "<em>"; echo $result['DepartmentCode']; echo "</em>"; echo "</td>";

echo "</tr> \n";

echo "<tr> \n";

echo "<td> </td> \n";

echo "</td> \n";

echo "</tr> \n";

echo "</table> \n";

echo"<br>";

}

if($page != 1){

$pageprev = $page--;

echo("<a href=\"$PHP_SELF&page=$pageprev\">PREV".$limit."</a> ");

}else{

echo("PREV".$limit." ");

}

$numofpages = $totalrows / $limit;

for($i = 1; $i <= $numofpages; $i++){

if($i == $page){

echo($i." ");

}else{

echo("<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$i\">$i</a> ");

}

if(($totalrows % $limit) != 0){

if($i == $page){

echo($i." ");

}else{

echo("<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$i\">$i</a> ");

echo "<br>";

}

if(($totalrows - ($limit * $page)) > 0){

$pagenext = $page++;

echo("<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$pagenext\">NEXT".$limit."</a>");

}else{

echo("NEXT".$limit);

echo "\n";

}

?>

</span>

<?php

}

//This counts the number or results - and if there wasn't any it gives them a little message explaining that

$anymatches=mysql_num_rows($data);

if ($anymatches == 0)

{

echo "Sorry, but we can not find an entry to match your query<br><br>";

}

?>

<?php

mysql_free_result($user_conditional);

?>

Any help would be so greatly appreciated!!

Thanks
