$request->getParameter() offers more, than $_GET - for example, it
also has the post values, and allows them to be filtered via the
request.filter_parameters event. Even though $_GET works in most
cases, $request->getParameter() is the way to go. Check the
sfWebRequest class to see what's going on behind the courtain.
I believe Eno meant using multiple question marks in a query string by
incorrect. A valid one is like this:
url?parameter1=value1¶meter2=value2...
So it has only one question mark, before the very first parameter,
after that the others are separated by an amperstand.
Check if you get the username and the page values correctly in
pages>=2, if not, your problem is the query string. If you do, then
your problem is most probably in the $this->getPager() function, not
in the code you showed us.
