Hi Natividad, I do not see exactly your problem, but you could do this in a better kind of way. Lets say your table contains 1 Million records, do you want to transfer them all over the network??!! I hop not :-) Pull out just the records you want with the limit statement:
SELECT colum_name FROM table_name WHERE criteria LIMIT 1,10 This will pull out the first 10 records http://www.mysql.com/doc Hope this helps, Andy "Natividad Castro" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Hi to all, > I'm displaying a set of records in different pages. > The user will be able to search by category, let say a user wants to search > projects that belong to 'PHP' category, so I will list all the projects that > belong to that category. > My problem is: the first 10 records on the first page display without any > problem, but when I try to go to the next page it doesn't display any > record. > The weird thing is that if I write my query: SELECT * FROM 150BK WHERE > CATEGORY='PHP', I don't any problem I can see all my record and go through > from page to page.
