I want to display a number of the mysql enteries basically page 1 1-10 page 2 2-20 when someone clicks next and previous it adds or subtracts 10 and when someone clicks last it multiplies the page number i really need help i been tearing my hair out for hours
// This the full code which will generate a paging system
$limit=10; // Limit of result per page
;
$qresult = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users"); // Let's get the query
$nrResults=mysql_num_rows($qresult); // Count the results
if (($nrResults%$limit)<>0) {
$pmax=floor($nrResults/$limit)+1; // Divide to total result by the number of query you want
// to display per page($limit) and create a Max page
} else {
$pmax=floor($nrResults/$limit);
}
$qresult = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users LIMIT ".(($_GET["page"]-1)*$limit).", $limit");
//Need to generate query considering your limit
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($qresult))
{
// Now once we got the query from MySQL, we need to think what we to do it. You can do anything. This is just an example
$add++;
$first= $row['first'];
$last= $row['last'];
$votefor= $row['votefor'];
$picture= $row['picture'];
echo "<br/>
<div>
