My search results page and pagination work fine for page 1, but subsequent pages break due to the fact that my SQL string is regenerated each time the page is refreshed (I lose the values in my query string). How can I maintain the same SQL query string that is generated on the first page hit??? Anyone want to take a stab at this???
