Paging without database.

[joe2]

Hi,

I am trying to develop search within the HTML page meta keywords through read directory > get meta content > preg_match.It is working.But the problem is resultset is around 50. How can i add paging in this system.
Please advice..

Thanks.

Without a database, storage is limited to the filesystem, or memory.

Write an array to $GLOBALS or to $SESSION, I suppose...or write a file to /tmp. But, that's really what $_SESSION does anyway, so I'd wonder if there's that much difference....

I am not sure that I understand what you are doing, but one method to page through results not from a db would be to put the results into an indexed array and return them 10 at a time.

Hi,

I am using preg_match with word boundry..

if (preg_match ("/\b$userkeyword\b/i", "PHP is the web scripting language of choice.")) {
print "A match was found.";
} else {
print "A match was not found.";
}

But in some cases it is doing partial matches alse. Words like crosess,bearings . it is doing partial match.if u search bearing,it searches bearings also.similarly if yu search cross, it searches crosses also.

What is going wrong.
Please suggest.....

Thanks
