: The problem comes as in this procedure i has to set the third parameter n
: and as a result, when user click the last page link, exception will be
: thrown when the total number of search results excesses the *n* i specified
: in the program. How can i overcome this problem?

you're going to need to change "n" ... typically people just use something 
like... 
        int n = DOCS_PER_PAGE * page_num

have you looked at the Lucene Demo code?  it has a more complex example of 
doing a paginated search (grep for doPagingSearch) ...

: I've posted this problem twice and seen no reply. Could anyone offer a
: hand?  Thanks.

You should consider posting to the java-u...@lucene mailing list which 
is specificly focused on discussions of using hte java API ... 
gene...@lucene is a broader list for discussions about the braoder Lucene 
project, or as a getting started point for people who aren't even sure 
which Lucene technology (PyLucene, Lucene-Java, Solr, Mahout, Nutch, 
etc...) might be useful for them.
