Hi,
Thanks. Instead of using next and previous I am giving the page number at
the bottom of the page (see lastminute.vvmm.net/nextweek.php). The
problem is that if there are, say 35 pages, the page numbers go off the
screen. This is the snippet:
if ($nopage>=$limit)
{
echo ("<center><table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\">
<tr>
<td><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"1\">Pagina</td>");
for($j=1; $j<=($nopage); $j++)
{
//$next = $limit*($j-1);
$xi = ($j-1);
echo("<td><font
face=\"Arial\" size=\"1\"><a
href=\"$PHP_SELF?npage=$xi\">[$page[$j]]</a></font>
</td>");
}
echo(" </tr>
</table></center>");
}
