PHP Page Records display logic


On single page, I am displaying 20 records at a time and with that records, I am generating PDF with their profile to export / download for admin.

Now, what i want is, for ex. on 4th Page i am passing, 4 while actual records i will have will be 61 ~ 80.. and on..

for example:

3rd page: 41 ~ 60 records
4th page: 61 ~ 80 records
5th page: 81 ~ 100 records and so on..

Does Any one have idea, How can i pass dynamic Start and End query limit in this case?


Solution

  • Simple (don't consider following as valid PHP code! Because.... it's not):

    $page = $_GET['page'] ? $_GET['page'] : 1;
    $records_on_page = X;
    $offset = $records_on_page * ($page-1);
    $limit = "LIMIT $offset,$records_on_page"
    
    page, offset, on_page
    1, 00, 20
    2, 20, 20
    3, 40, 20
    4, 60, 20
    5, 80, 20
    etc.
    

    all logic.
