Hi Dennis!
You can add the parameter "LIMIT" to your SQL query.
Syntax: LIMIT $start_record,$record_count
Example: $query_string = "select * from $table where keywords like
'%$keyword%' limit 5,3";
This will return 3 records started with the 5. found record.
The startrecord has to increase on next page.
Store the current startrecord in the form and send it to the next page.
bye Marcus
