In order to do this you also need to use the offset value in your SQL Statement, so it would be
SELECT * FROM users LIMIT $offset, $perpage
Example:
SELECT * FROM tbl LIMIT 5,10; # Retrieve rows 6-15
Then to get the links to put on the bottom of your page you would want to get a count of the total data, divide the total by the per page value to figure out how many pages you are going to have.
Then set your offset value based on what page the user clicked.
Hope that helps!
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users" ); //Note if you have a very large table you probably want to get the count instead of selecting all of the data...
$nrResults = mysql_num_rows( $result );
if( $_GET['page'] ) {
$page = $_GET['page']
} else {
$page = 1;
}
$per_page = 2;
$offset = ($page - 1) * $per_page; //So that page 1 starts at 0, page 2 starts at 2 etc.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users LIMIT $offset,$per_page");
while( $line = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) )
{
//Do whatever you want with each row in here
}
