combination field and limiting search results per page

[ginger2810]

hey you all,

sorry, my english is not the best.
i actually began coding php and html.
i have two questions:
1. how do i create a combinated field, consisting of a list field and a text field, like ie does, I mean you can decide between the last entries you did when you klick on the arrow or you can put in a new string into the textfield
2. how do I limit the results per page( maybe 10 per page) for example at a search, like google does

thanks a lot
ginger

set a variable in your script called $limit_start

if (!isset($limit_start))
    {
    $limit_start = "0";
    }
$limit_end = $limit_start + 10;

modify your sql statement to use the limit function:

$get_data = "select * from table where 1=1 limit $limit_start, $limit_end";

if they go to another page, just set

$limit_start = 10 * $page_number;
