Multiple Pages on PHPBuilder Columns... how to do?

[Anon]

I'm building a dynamically-driven website, which all ties-around PHP scripts and mySQL databases. I have a table called "Articles", and for each unique article, there is a field called "Content". Into the content field I insert the HTML-coded articles, and then have the necessary scripts retrieve and display the pages accordingly.

This all works fine until...

Some of the articles are rather big, and on my original site, I simply divided them across an appopriate amount of HTML files. Now I'm moving this content across to a database, I need to ascertain the best way of breaking these articles into multiple pages, while hopefully still keeping them in the same database "record" for easy retrieval purposes.

I notice that the PHPBuilder Columns are "page divided"... how do you do it guys?

Kind regards,

Mark

well, i don't know how phpbuilder does it, but what i'd do is this:

put a tag (or tags) in the content such as <!-- page break -->, and use them to split the content into chunks (using preg_split() for example) which you can then manage however you desire.
