PHP & MySQL Pagination

I have a MySQL query

SELECT * FROM 'redirect'
WHERE 'user_id'= \''.$_SESSION['user_id'].' \' 
ORDER BY 'timestamp'`

I want to paginate 10 results per page. How Can I do it?

Solution 1:

Here is a nice starting point:

<?php

// insert your mysql connection code here

$perPage = 10;
$page = (isset($_GET['page'])) ? (int)$_GET['page'] : 1;
$startAt = $perPage * ($page - 1);

$query = "SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM redirect
WHERE user_id = '".$_SESSION['user_id']."'";
$r = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query($query));

$totalPages = ceil($r['total'] / $perPage);

$links = "";
for ($i = 1; $i <= $totalPages; $i++) {
  $links .= ($i != $page ) 
            ? "<a href='index.php?page=$i'>Page $i</a> "
            : "$page ";
}


$r = mysql_query($query);

$query = "SELECT * FROM 'redirect'
WHERE 'user_id'= \''.$_SESSION['user_id'].' \' 
ORDER BY 'timestamp' LIMIT $startAt, $perPage";

$r = mysql_query($query);

// display results here the way you want

echo $links; // show links to other pages

Solution 2:

Use LIMIT.

SELECT *
FROM redirect
WHERE user_id = '35251' 
ORDER BY timestamp
LIMIT 40, 10

40 is how many records to skip, 10 is how many to display.

There are also a few problems with your PHP. You use backticks (not single quotes) to surround table and column names. And you shouldn't use string concatenation to build your query.

Solution 3:

Use the LIMIT clausule of the query to limit the amount of results you retrieve from the database.

See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/select.html

Solution 4:

Here is my code
which contains next and Previous button

<?php  
    $limit = 3;  //set  Number of entries to show in a page.
    // Look for a GET variable page if not found default is 1.        
    if (isset($_GET["page"])) {    
    $page  = $_GET["page"];    
    }    
    else { $page=1;    
    } 
    //determine the sql LIMIT starting number for the results on the displaying page  
    $page_index = ($page-1) * $limit;      // 0

    $All_Users=mysqli_query($con,"select * from users limit $page_index, $limit");
    while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($All_Users))
    {
        //show  data in table or where you want..
    }
    $all_data=mysqli_query($con,"select count(*) from users");
    $user_count = mysqli_fetch_row($all_data);   // say total count 9  
    $total_records = $user_count[0];   //9
    $total_pages = ceil($total_records / $limit);    // 9/3=  3
    if($page >= 2){
        echo "<a href='blog.php?page=".($page-1)."' class='btn 
     customBtn2'>Previous</a>";
      }
    
    if($page<$total_pages) {
        echo "<a href='blog.php?page=".($page+1)."' class='btn customBtn2'>NEXT</a>";   
    }       
?>
