Helping adding pagination to this search class...

[listenmirndt]

Hi folks, afraid that I am not sure where to start here, I am using this dandy search class, but I am not sure how to add pagination to it. I do have a pagination script written - but, I am not too sure how to tweak it in..

First the search class

class search_engine
{

function search_engine($mysql)
{
    # set database connection
    $this->host = $mysql[0];
    $this->username = $mysql[1];
    $this->password = $mysql[2];
    $this->database = $mysql[3];
    $this->link = mysql_connect($this->host,$this->username,$this->password) or die(mysql_error());
    $this->db_selected = mysql_select_db($this->database,$this->link) or die(mysql_error());
    $this->found = array();
}
function set_table($table)
{
    # set table
    $this->table = $table;
}
function set_keyword($keyword)
{
    # set keywords
    $this->keyword = explode(" ", $keyword);

}

function set_primarykey($key)
{
    # set primary key
    $this->key = $key;
}
function set_fields($field)
{
    # set fieldnames to search
    $this->field =$field;
}
function set_dump()
{
    # var dump objects
    echo '<pre>';
    var_dump($this->found);
    echo '</pre>';
}
function set_total()
{
    # total results found
    return sizeof($this->found);
}
function set_result()
{
    # find occurence of inputted keywords
    $key =  $this->key;
    for ($n=0; $n<sizeof($this->field); $n++)
    {
        for($i =0; $i<sizeof($this->keyword); $i++)
        {
            $pattern = trim($this->keyword[$i]);

                            $sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$this->table." WHERE `".$this->field[$n]."` LIKE '%".$pattern."%' ORDER BY ID DESC";
            $result = mysql_query($sql);
            while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($result) AND !empty($pattern))
            {
                $this->found[] = $row->$key;
            }
        }
    }
    $this->found = array_unique($this->found);
    return $this->found;
}
}

?>

Now, how to get results out of it :

<?PHP
$config = array($host,$user,$pass,$database);
$table = 'PRODUCTS';
$key = 'ID';
$fields = array('TITLE','CAPTION','DESCRIPTION');

$keyword = $_POST['SEARCH'];

$found = new search_engine($config);
$found->set_table($table);
$found->set_primarykey($key);
$found->set_keyword($keyword);
$found->set_fields($fields);

$result = $found->set_result();
                $QR = 2;

foreach($result AS $v => $content) {
        $num = $num;
        if ($rowxxx[MAXRESULTS] == $nil) $rowxxx[MAXRESULTS] = 10; 
        if ($num >= $rowxxx[MAXRESULTS]) { /* do nothing */ } else {
        $SQL = "SELECT * from PRODUCTS WHERE ID = '$content'"; $result = @mysql_query( $SQL ); $row = @mysql_fetch_array( $result );
        $QR = 1;
?>

Finally, how I usually start my pagination code :

if (!isset ($_GET['show'])) {
        $display = 1;
} else {
        $display = $_GET['show'];
}

$start          = (($display * $_SESSION[limit]) - $_SESSION[limit]);
$query2         = @mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM $table $string LIMIT $start,$_SESSION[limit]");
while ($row = @mysql_fetch_array ($query2)) {

If I could just get that limiting into the search class somehow, but the search class return's data as an object, or somthing like that.. not sure how to work this,

I really appreciate any help!
