PHP :: Creating First Next, Previous And Page Links

Preserving 'order By' When Using Next/previous Links
I have a functioning output of data with next/previous links and a limit of 20 items per page. I also have links to sort the data by various options. My problem is that if you sort by something and then hit the next link, the next page defaults to the default (lastname) sorting. Other than removing the default sorting is there a way to keep the chosen sorting on each page? Also, if there are no additional records (like only 18) the next page link still shows up. How would I remove that? PHP Code:

Previous And Next Links For Private Messages
I have a section where I can view private messages on my site. I have them on readmessage.php. What happens on this page is it gets a messageid from the previous page and displays that message. I want to include a next or previous link on the bottom so they don't have to go back to the previous page to view the link. Can someone please help me write the query for this so they can just click on the link to view the next message or the previous message in the database.

Previous And Next Links And Displaying Database Information
I would like to display a listing of files on a web page as follows:

If there is only one file: display the section name and then display the
current file.

If there is more than one file (for the first page): display the section
name, the current file and a few archive files.

If there is more than a page full (for each additional page): display the
section name, and the next set of archive files.

This is the code I have been working with (it's a bit ugly, suggestions are
welcome). For some reason the second page of listings skips the first item.
1st page lists items 0 through 4, second page skips item 5 and starts
displaying item 6.

function display_table($sec_id, $num_item){
GLOBAL $link;
$updir = "../uploads/"; //maybe this should be a GLOBAL variable???
if (isset($_GET['start'])){$start = $_GET['start'];}else{$start = 0;}
//GLOBAL $start;
//query DB
$query_total = "SELECT file_id
FROM files
WHERE file_section_id =" . $sec_id ;
$query = "SELECT file_id, file_meeting_date, file_meeting_time,
file_title, file_modified, file_section_id, sec_name, sec_id,
sec_disp_archive
FROM files f, section s
WHERE f.file_section_id =" . $sec_id . " AND f.file_section_id = s.sec_id
ORDER BY file_modified DESC LIMIT " . $start . "," . $num_item;
$result = mysqli_query( $link, $query ) or die(mysqli_error($link));
$result_total = mysqli_query( $link, $query_total ) or
die(mysqli_error($link));
$num_rows = mysqli_num_rows($result_total);
//print $query;
//create hyperlinks and display table
//display current file
/* print "START: " . $start . "NUMBER: " .$num_item . " ROWS: " .
$num_rows;*/
/*$obj = mysqli_fetch_object($result);*/
if ($num_rows > 1){ //Display current and archive files
//only display current table if start is not set (not on page 1)
$obj = mysqli_fetch_object($result);//Call DB
$content = "<div id ='MainContent'><p><b>" . $obj->sec_name .
"</b></p><table width=ï`%' border=Ƈ'>";
if (!isset($_GET['start'])||$_GET['start']==0){
//for 1st item display file info
$content.= "<tr><td colspan=Ɖ' align='center'>Current</td></tr>";
$content.= "<tr bgcolor='#CCCCCC'><td width=ཝ%'>Meeting Date</td><td
width=ཝ%'>Meeting Time</td><td width=ཞ%'>File</td></tr>";
$content .= "<tr><td>" . date("F jS,
Y",strtotime($obj->file_meeting_date)) . "</td><td>" . date("g:i
A",strtotime($obj->file_meeting_time)) . "</td><td><a href='" . $updir .
$obj->file_title . "'>" . "View Current File" . "</td><tr>";
$content .="</table>";
print "START: " . $start . "NUMBER: " .$num_item . " ROWS: " . $num_rows;
//DEBUG

Image Gallery With Thumbnails And 'previous | Next' Links
I am creating an image gallery where i have thumbnails of all the images set in a iframe and the main picture when clicked apprearing in another larger iframe.

However i would like to include a previous and next link on my page as well that the user can use to navigate through to next next image this way as well.

All my image names are stored in a mysql database and have a position number that is unique to them. I have tried to use a pagination script however i think this is not suitable as i am only displaying one large image on the page at a time.

Passing Info Of Checked Boxes(array Value) Using Next/previous Links
I have a webpage which generates product information from a database, with a checkbox next to each product. There are 20 products per page, and about 220 products right now. I have next and previous buttons on top which are generated dynamically using $PHP_SELF according to the # of products in the Database.

I can check off products that I want delete on one page and then click on a submit button, which deletes those products of the main page. Now my main question is this.....my array of checkboxes is named to[], can I check off products on 1 page, then click on next, etc etc. till I check all the products off i want to send delete to, but remember the values of all the previous checkboxes??

In other words when I click on submit for my last product, will it remember all the names that I checked off? PHP Code:

Creating Next And Previous Buttons
Imagine you have a table of vehicles made up of different classes, say "cars","planes","bikes". So if I did SELECT * from VEHICLES WHERE myClass = 'cars'

I get... "Ferrari, Porsche, Lambo,Lexus" etc

What I would like to know is there a way of counting so I know that in those returned rows "Porsche" is No.2? Ultimately I'm trying to create NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons so for example if the page was on "Porsche" my NEXT would take me to "Lambo" and previous to "Ferrari".

I'm guessing to do that I need to do something clever with the offSet values, but I'm a little stumped as how to get Porsche to tell me its No.2 of all vehicles with the class of cars.

Creating Links Out Of Db Content
I have a db that looks like:

field: apartment
field: city
field: link

At this point I'd like to construct a script that will pull a keyword out of the url string, and grab the "apartment" and "link" fields that correspond (matched by category), and display them in link form on a page.

I have the script down so it will grab the keyword it needs, and the select statement that will grab the two fields. My question is. Once I have the $result , how can I parse them to use the way I'd like....each city with it's corresponding link...displayed.

while?
For?
List?

Creating Hierarchy Of Links To Parent Categories?..
Hi

I've attempted to create a set of links to my pages which displays all higher level (parent) categories.

Something like this:

Top > Category1 > Category2 > Category3 > Category4

With Category4 being the title of the current category being displayed. Only the higher level categories should be links, ie Category4 in the example should be just text and not hyperlinked.

My attempt so far is the code below. It sort of works, but only displays the current category (as text) and it's parent (as a link).

As you descend ito the catalog, the higher levels are not visible.

Refresh The Previous Page
This is a project that I am attempting in which a user is allowed to submit a programming code which the server will run.
The user submits the files from the client side. the user details will be written to a mysql database and the code is run. at the end of code run, the result will be posted back to the client which will then show a table of submissions made. Thus I reckon I need to perform a refresh on the client side but how do you go about doing this in php.

Cache The Previous Page?
I have a routine that displays 60 items (with thumbnails) per page.
You can click any item and displays a new page with item details. When
the user back pages it runs the query again to display all the items.
Is there a way to cache that page and images so that second query
doesn't execute?

I do offer a pop-up window using Java but is not the default and not
used by many. I'd really like to get rid of that second query. ;)

But, instead of the current page, any ideas how I would use that (it can be different if neccessary) to check if the PREVIOUS page was index.php?cmd=index'?

Redirection To Previous Page
I'm trying to make a script that would upon execution would redirect current page to previous page. I'm integrating a user comment system for my website and when I do no specify "After inserting, go to page" it reloads current page but user comment is not visible, so I decided after adding a comment to send user to say redirect.php page, what would instantly send user back to submition page to see it's comment.

I cannot seem to find a suitable script to do this. Or maybe there is some other way to reload current page and for the comment to appear just after submition? Because I do not want people to reload page manualy to see their comments, in which case it would sumbit the comment twice.

Ob_start() And Going Back To The Previous Page
1. How do I go back to the previous page using PHP?

For example, I have a log-in process which validates username and password of members, and also retricts access to certain pages. So if a member goes into a page without logging in, the member will be presented with a form to log in. How can I make my script go back to the previous page they were trying to access prior to logging in?

2. What would happen if I use ob_start and ob_end_flush() on every page that I have? Would it affect loading time? Or would loading time be the same except that it would cache everything first? Isn't that suppose to make it appear that the page loads fast?
