An easy page browser ( prev 6 7 8 9 10 next )
<![CDATA[
<?
I've had some requests for making it support MSSQL (MSSQL doesn't support the LIMIT
clause) But I'm sure there is a way to get around it :) Keep checking this page...
-----------
Description
-----------
The function returns an array of 3 values as described below:
VALUE 1 [0]: Returns a string that can be appended to your SQL query so that the
correct block of rows can be returned. Eg. " LIMIT 10, 20"
VALUE 2 [1]: Returns an html string that gives the user an indication of which rows
he's currently browsing. Eg. 11-20
VALUE 3 [2]: Returns an html navigation bar needed for navigating through the total
result returned Eg. Page: << 6 7 8 9 10 >>
---------
Arguments
---------
The first 4 arguments are declared/assigned by you while the last 3 are done when
you start using the navigation bar generated by the function (See 'Usage' below).
totalrows - The TOTAL amount of rows returned by your executed SQL statement
numLimit - The amount of page numbers you'd like displayd in your navigation bit
Eg. '4' would display "Page: 1 2 3 4 Next 4 >>"
amm - The amount of rows returned per page (for the SQL string to append)
queryStr - If you'd like extra vars to be passed to that page Eg. "&name=value"
There are also 3 variables inside the function you can change if you'd like the
navigation bar to look a little different (larrow,rarrow,wholePiece).

Usage
-----
See 'Usage' at the end of this document.

I hope this can come in handy :)
