You can use the LIMIT operator to do this.  It is normal to pass a
start parameter between pages (?start=xx) that can be attached to the
end of your query along with the number of items you want to list, as
follows:

SELECT * FROM table LIMIT $start, $count;

When you make your next and previous links simply +/- $count from
$start and attach them to the links.
