[SOLVED] Need Help Altering Pagination Script

[phpQuestioner]

I want to be able to disable the pagination link for the current page I am on. I also would like to add "<<Previous" and "Next>>" to this pagination. I have done some searching on this site and others and found many pagination script; but I kind of understand this one, that I found on this site. Could someone help me transform this script or tell me how I could transform it to include "<<Previous" and "Next>>" links and to disable/remove the link to the pagination number of the current page I am on.

 

Here Is The Code I Found On PHPFreaks Sample Codes

 

<?php


      $host = "localhost"; //your sql host, usually 'localhost'

      $user = "username"; //username to connect to database

      $pass = "password"; //password to connect to database

      $db = "List"; //the name of the database

      mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die("ERROR:".mysql_error());

      mysql_select_db($db) or die("ERROR DB:".mysql_error());


      $max = 1; //amount of data table rows per page. change to the maximum amount of rows you want to display per page

      $page = $_GET['page'];

      if(empty($page))

      {

      $page = 1;

      }

      $limits = ($page - 1) * $max;

      //this section is where you set the page layout for the an individual data table row to be viewed

      if(isset($_GET['act']) && $_GET['act'] == "view")

      {

      $id = $_GET['id'];

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dataTable1 WHERE id = '$id'");

      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $year = $r['year'];

      $make = $r['make'];

      $model = $r['model'];

      $series = $r['series'];

      //echo "$year $make $model $series";
      header("Location: http://www.domain.com/description.php?id=$id");

      }

      }else{


      //this would be where you would view the pagination

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dataTable1 order by make, year asc LIMIT ".$limits.",$max") or die(mysql_error());

      //the total rows in the table

      $totalres = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(id) AS tot FROM dataTable1"),0); 

      //the total number of pages (calculated result), math stuff...

      $totalpages = ceil($totalres / $max);


      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $id = $r['id'];

      $year = $r['year'];

      $make = $r['make'];

      $model = $r['model'];

      $series = $r['series'];


      echo "<a href='Pagination-Example.php?act=view&id=$id'>$year $make $model $series</a>";

      }

      echo "<br><br><br><br><br>";

      echo "<center>";

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

      //this is the pagination link
      
      echo "<a href='Pagination-Example.php?page=$i'>$i</a>   ";

      }

      echo "</center>";

      }

?>

Does anyone know how I can do this?

[teng84]

we know but let me tell you this do it first then give us your edited codes

its not a good thing to let forum helper help you that way

sorry!

 

 

[phpQuestioner]

teng84,

 

if I knew where to start, then I would do it all myself; I just need to know how to start doing what I need to do........ - so "sorry" yourself !!!

[phpQuestioner]

ok - so I have been playing around with this code and I finally figured out how to create my "Next" and "Previous" links, but I still cannot figure out how to remove the pagination link for the page I am currently on. Can some one at least tell me how to do that.

 

 

Example

 

Pagination URL: PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=2

 

Pagination Links: 1 2 3

 

 

Here Is My Updated Code

 

<?php


      $host = "localhost"; //your sql host, usually 'localhost'

      $user = "username"; //username to connect to database

      $pass = "password"; //password to connect to database

       $db = "List"; //the name of the database

      mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die("ERROR:".mysql_error());

      mysql_select_db($db) or die("ERROR DB:".mysql_error());


      $max = 1; //amount of data table rows per page. change to what to want

      $page = $_GET['page'];

      if(empty($page))

      {

      $page = 1;

      }

      $limits = ($page - 1) * $max;

      //this section is where you set the page layout for the an individual data table row to be viewed

      if(isset($_GET['act']) && $_GET['act'] == "view")

      {

      $id = $_GET['id'];

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dataTable1 WHERE id = '$id'");

      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $year = $r['year'];

      $make = $r['make'];

      $model = $r['model'];

      $series = $r['series'];

      }

      }else{


      //this would be where you would view the pagination

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dataTable1 order by make, year asc LIMIT ".$limits.",$max") or die(mysql_error());

      //the total rows in the table

      $totalres = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(id) AS tot FROM dataTable1"),0); 

      //the total number of pages (calculated result), math stuff...

      $totalpages = ceil($totalres / $max);


      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $id = $r['id'];

      $year = $r['year'];

      $make = $r['make'];

      $model = $r['model'];

      $series = $r['series'];


      echo "<a href='Pagination-Example.php?act=view&id=$id'>$year $make $model $series</a>";

      }

      echo "<br><br><br><br><br>";

      echo "<center>";

      $back = $page - 1;

if ($page > 1) {

      $startlink="<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$back'>Prevoius";
      $endlink="</a>";
}
else {

      $startlink="";
      $endlink="";
}

      echo "$startlink$endlink ";

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

      //this is the pagination link
      
      echo "<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$i'>$i</a>   ";

      }

$stopoint = $totalres - 1;

if ($page <= $stopoint) {
      $next = $page + 1;

      $startlink2="<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$next'>Next";
      $endlink2="</a>";
}
else {
      $startlink2="";
      $endlink2="";
}

      echo "$startlink2$endlink2";

      echo "</center>";

      }

?>

Well since no one seems to know how to do this; I solved the script on my own. The PHP pagination now has: "Previous" link, "Next" link, and Numeric links that automatically remove the link of the corresponding numeric pagination; for the current page you are on. I hope someone can profit and/or save time with this script; that is why I have posted the final code below.

 

Here Is The Final PHP Pagination Script

 

<?php


      // Title: PHP Pagination (Previous, Next, & Numerical Style Pagination Links)
      // Note: This file would be named "PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php" (rename as needed)


      $host = "localhost"; //your sql host, usually 'localhost'

      $user = "username"; //username to connect to database

      $pass = "password"; //password to connect to database

       $db = "database_name"; //the name of the database

      mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die("ERROR:".mysql_error());

      mysql_select_db($db) or die("ERROR DB:".mysql_error());


      $max = 1; // This is the amount of data table rows you want to display per page (change as you desire)

      $page = $_GET['page'];

      if(empty($page))

      {

      $page = 1;

      }

      $limits = ($page - 1) * $max;

      // This section is where you set the page layout for the an individual data table row to be viewed

      if(isset($_GET['act']) && $_GET['act'] == "view")

      {

      $id = $_GET['id'];

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM data_table_name WHERE id = '$id'");

      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $products = $r['mystuff'];

      }

      }else{


      // This would be where you would view the pagination

      $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM data_table_name order by make, year asc LIMIT ".$limits.",$max") or die(mysql_error());

      // The total rows in the table

      $totalres = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(id) AS tot FROM data_table_name"),0); 

      // The total number of pages (calculated result), math stuff...

      $totalpages = ceil($totalres / $max);


      while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql))

      {

      $products = $r['mystuff'];


      echo "$products";

      }

      echo "<br><br><br><br><br>";

      echo "<center>";

      $back = $page - 1;

      // This checks to see if the "Previous" link should be displayed

      if ($page > 1) {

      	$startlink="<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$back'>Prevoius";
      	$endlink="</a>";
      }
      else {

      $startlink="";
      $endlink="";
      }

      echo "$startlink$endlink ";

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

      // This removes link for the corresponding pagination number of the current page you are on
      
      if ($page == $i) {
      	$plb="";
      	$ple="";
      }
      else {
      	$plb="<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$i'>";
        $ple="</a>";
      }

      // This is the pagination link
      
      echo "$plb$i$ple   ";

      }

      $stopoint = $totalres - 1;

      // This checks to see if the "Next" link should be displayed

      if ($page <= $stopoint) {
      	$next = $page + 1;
$startlink2="<a href='PHP-Pagination-Beta-Test.php?page=$next'>Next";
      	$endlink2="</a>";
      }
      else {
      	$startlink2="";
      	$endlink2="";
      }

      echo "$startlink2$endlink2";

      echo "</center>";

      }


?>

 

 

PS: Thanks for all your help on this script PHPFreaks Forum Helpers - LOL!!! - Yeah Right !!! (I did this all on my own - so what you think about that teng84 ?!!!).
