Automatic pagination

[dcjones]

Hi All,

I am working on a script which will access data from a data table. At any one time the table can contain 500 plus records.

The output will display around 20 records on each page. I am therefore looking at PAGINATION to control the flow of displayed data.

Before I start coding the PAGINATION is there a way of automatically triggering the PAGINATION after a number of seconds have passed.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Pagination is related to the number of records returned, not the amount of time elapsed. What are you trying to accomplish, exactly?

Hi Pikachu2000,

Thank you for your reply.

I will be displaying a large number of data rows containing airline flight information. I am restricted to around 20 rows per screen. I want the screen display to automatically roll on to the next 20 record set after a few seconds have passed.

I thought I should start to look at PAGINATION to enable records to be split into x number of rows per screen display.

Is there another approach I should take.

you can do that with a mix of javascript and php or all javascript(for the pagination and auto change page)
