Hi there,
Thanks to both of you for your responses. I'm running Lift 1.0.
Maybe I'm missing the point of URL rewriting, so here's what I really
want to do.
My "Customers" link shows /customer/list/1, and when I click on this I
want to see a page (cust.html or customer.html -- I don't really mind
which) and be given a page number parameter equal to "1". At the
bottom of this page will be a "next" button with a URL of /customer/
list/2.
When someone clicks on my "next" link I get the same page shown, but
this time the page number parameter equals "2". And so on, giving me
basic pagination. It may take me some time to get there, but that's
my goal!
Regards,
Paul.
