Hello I am trying to create some pagination for my site I am building.
However this pagination is a bit messed up, (I forget exactly where I found
it) when I click next it doesn't display anything else in the database.
Also a few other things are rather odd about it.
Does anyone have some good solid working pagination they can share with me
*cheers
Here is the code
def index():
if len(request.args):
page=int(request.args[0])
else:
page=0
items_per_page=2
limitby=(page*items_per_page,(page+1)*items_per_page + 1)
rows=db().select(db.product.ALL, orderby=db.product.product_name,
groupby=db.product.category, limitby=limitby)
return dict(rows=rows,page=page,items_per_page=items_per_page)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{{i = i+1}}
{{pass}}
<table align="center">
<tr>
{{if page:}}
<td align="center">
<a href="{{=URL(r=request, args=[page-1])}}">previous</a>
{{pass}}
</td>
{{if len(rows)>=items_per_page:}}
<td align="center">
<a href="{{=URL(r=request, args=[page+1])}}">next</a>
{{pass}}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
