Need help with ColdFusion multipages

[rharp]

Hello, I’m a jr. CF programmer trying to figure out how to create sets of multipages. What I want to do is create page sets of 10 and have an arrow link, which would jump you to the next 10 pages. The page selected would be the first number of the set, for example you have pages 1-10 then click the arrow and go to set 11-20. The page selected would be 11. I have no idea how to even attempt this task. Any input and/or suggestions would be more than appreciated. Thanks -Rebekah

Try this piece of code, it's old but it works: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=14&lngWId=9

Here's one way (from CFMX manual, pages 468-469):

<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="your_db" NAME="GetLinks">
SELECT link, link_ID FROM your_table
</CFQUERY>
<cfparam NAME ="MaxRows" default="10">
<cfparam NAME ="StartRow" default="1">
<CFOUTPUT QUERY="GetLinks" startrow="#StartRow#" maxrows="#MaxRows#">
#GetLinks.currentRow# --- #link#<BR>
</CFOUTPUT>
<CFIF (StartRow+MaxRows) LTE GetLinks.recordcount>
<a href="your_filename.cfm?StartRow=<cfoutput>#evaluate(StartRow+MaxRows)#</cfoutput>"><img src="/images/arrow.gif></a>
</CFIF><br>
<a href="your_filename.cfm?StartRow=1">Reset counter</a>

(too easy, so I decided to fill it out - just copy & paste; change MaxRows to output different number of records)

website links for coldfusion:

but for me the macromedia site has always been the best reference

www.communitymx.com is another great site to help with all macromedia products.

Take care,

I tried adapting this piece of code to use on my guestbook to show X number of records per page, and produce a previous/next link, but it does absolutely nothing. I have tried numerous pieces of code to achieve this, but so far, nothing works. Any advice is definitely appreciated. :)
