Help on pagination please

P: 64
I have a pagination function I am using in a file called functions.php as below
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <? //Pagination functions  function getPagingQuery($sql, $itemPerPage = 10) {    if (isset($_GET['page']) && (int)$_GET['page'] > 0)    {       $page = (int)$_GET['page'];    }    else    {       $page = 1;    }        // start fetching from this row number    $offset = ($page - 1) * $itemPerPage;        return $sql . " LIMIT $offset, $itemPerPage"; }  /*    Get the links to navigate between one result page to another.     */ function getPagingLink($sql, $itemPerPage = 10, $strGet = '') {    $result        = dbQuery($sql);    $pagingLink    = '';    $totalResults  = dbNumRows($result);    $totalPages    = ceil($totalResults / $itemPerPage);        // how many link pages to show    $numLinks      = 10;            // create the paging links only if theres more than one page of results    if ($totalPages > 1) {           $self = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ;               if (isset($_GET['page']) && (int)$_GET['page'] > 0) {          $pageNumber = (int)$_GET['page'];       } else {          $pageNumber = 1;       }              // print 'previous' link only if its not       // on page one       if ($pageNumber > 1) {          $page = $pageNumber - 1;          if ($page > 1) {             $prev = " <a href=\"$self?page=$page&$strGet/\">[Prev]</a> ";          } else {             $prev = " <a href=\"$self?$strGet\">[Prev]</a> ";          }                          $first = " <a href=\"$self?$strGet\">[First]</a> ";       } else {          $prev  = ''; // on page one, don't show 'previous' link          $first = ''; // nor 'first page' link       }           // print 'next' link only if its not       // on the last page       if ($pageNumber < $totalPages) {          $page = $pageNumber + 1;          $next = " <a href=\"$self?page=$page&$strGet\">[Next]</a> ";          $last = " <a href=\"$self?page=$totalPages&$strGet\">[Last]</a> ";       } else {          $next = ''; // if on the last page, don't show 'next' link          $last = ''; // nor 'last page' link       }        $start = $pageNumber - ($pageNumber % $numLinks) + 1;       $end   = $start + $numLinks - 1;                    $end   = min($totalPages, $end);              $pagingLink = array();       for($page = $start; $page <= $end; $page++)   {          if ($page == $pageNumber) {             $pagingLink[] = " $page ";   // no need to create a link to current page          } else {             if ($page == 1) {                $pagingLink[] = " <a href=\"$self?$strGet\">$page</a> ";             } else {                   $pagingLink[] = " <a href=\"$self?page=$page&$strGet\">$page</a> ";             }             }           }              $pagingLink = implode(' | ', $pagingLink);              // return the page navigation link       $pagingLink = $first . $prev . $pagingLink . $next . $last;    }        return $pagingLink; } ?>
I include that functions.php in every page because it contains all the functions I need

However, when I add the pagination to my DB functions containing SQLs, it doesn't work. Code below:

The first page is displayed well. When I click next, the page is blank and the URL is
http://localhost/cstock/admin/viewsa...es.php?page=2&

The URL for the search should be

http://localhost/cstock/admin/viewsa...=allsalestoday

Followed by the pagination as a user clicks next or a value in the pagination link

viewsales.php is the file containing sales functions

It only works if I put each function in its own page. My sales functions are many (33 functions) and so they are all in one file called view sales.php in a case statement.

How do I make it work if I have a file that contains all my sales functions and I want to use the pagination in each function?

my pagination function is in a file I call at the top of every page (functions.php)

But you can see that page has one function so the pagination works well using the variable ($page)

My problem is how to make it work in a page containing multiple functions AND it works in every function
Where should I change without having to make a pagination function for every POST function

My page of functions where I want to use it below:

I would forget about your immediate problem and redsign the whole thing.
Are you a self taught programmer?.
I ask because you have developed an unorthordox style.

There is surely no need for one function per month.
The correct way would be one function and pass the month as a parameter.

A function should perform one function not be used as a dump for a mishmash of SQL PHP and HTML

I may be misjudging because I cannot read your code comfortably..
How did you manage to get it all on one line?

Yes,
I'm a self taught programmer.

I have a drop-down from which one selects to view month (passed as a parameter)

I broke it down just so that one can understand what I mean by having many function but want the same pagination function to work in each.

I copied the code and pasted it.

When you look at my pagination code and my post, how would I use the pagination in a page containing a series of functions?

I am sorry. I have tried but cannot read your code in its present format.

Any chance of a moderator stepping in and advising gnawz on what he has done to make his code so unreadable.

I am referring only to the layout within the forum.

I attempted to format the code, but there's a hell of a lot and I don't have the time.

Gnawz, when you post code in the forums, please format it with indents and new lines so we here can actually read it.

ps: maybe format the code you gave previously and post it again so people can look at it better.

Dear all,

I have re-posted this thread with my code outside code tags as they are difficult to edit and mess all the code

I have a pagination function in function.php

When I use it in functions that are contained in one page, I shows the first page but when I click next, it goes blank as it only recognises the page, not the function or action

Eg it shows this for page 2 which is blank....

http://localhost/cstock/admin/viewsa...es.php?page=2&

yet I would like it to show

http://localhost/cstock/admin/viewsa...stoday&page=2&

and so on... ie It should maintain the search action (function) in subsequent paginations.

Some body help

I won't give you a formal warning for not using code tags, as I believe you knowingly did it with the best intentions. But you must use code tags.

This is an awful lot of code, and that is in both sense of the word awful.Nevertheless I cannot see where you have written the 'action' value in the URL.
that you are trying to read. [PHP]$action = isset($_GET['action']) ? $_GET['action'] : '';[/PHP]
But the code meanders and repeats itself so much it is too tiring to decipher.
I still stand by my first suggestion

Hey, y'all. Please keep the unnecessary criticisms to a minimum and focus on solving the OP's problem.

We've all been beginners at one point or another; it's a stage everyone goes through, and code improves with experience.

gnawz, thanks for re-posting your code. I'll have a look at it shortly.

Try passing 'action=allsalestoday' (etc.) as the third parameter to getPagingLink().

It looks like anything you put in the third parameter ($strGet) gets dumped right into the paging link.

Thanks, Sir

I always get criticism here. We can not be perfect all at once.

I will try that and get back to you.
But remember, I do not want to create another pagination function-I want to use the same (single function) in all pages. I hope I can achieve that in this case.
I have also improved my code.
I will post again.

Wherever you call getPagingLink(), set the third parameter to whatever value you want to set the action to:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. $pagingLink = getPagingLink($sql, $rowsPerPage, 'action=allsalestoday');
  2.  
You'll need to specify a different action each time you call it, but this will add the action parameter to your paging links.

Thanks for your help.

It added the action to the paging link when I look at the URL but I still get a blank page.

What could be the cause?

If you're getting a blank page, your script is probably generating an error. Check out this article to find out what is going on.
