[FX.php List] Problems with linkNext/linkPrevious

[Craig Forster]

Hi Bob.

List is all good. There is an defualt on this list to 'don't send posts back
to yourself' which means it can get quite confusing.... Eg Did this send?

Here is some code that is working on my site that you might find helpful to
get your links working (note I use form buttons, not links, so my forms are
POSTs not GETs)

## THE BIT THAT GETS THE RESULTS FROM FX.PHP

$keyWord=$_POST['keyWord'];
$sessCoName=$_SESSION["sessCoName"]; //Just a security tag I use
$skipSize=$_POST['skip'];
$type=$_POST['type'];
$groupSize=$_POST['Searchmax'];

 if($type=='next'){ $skipSize=$skipSize + $groupSize; }
 if($type=='prev'){ $skipSize=$skipSize - $groupSize; }


$skins=new FX($serverIP,$webCompanionPort,'FMPro7');
$skins->SetDBData($DBase,$DBLayout,$groupSize);
$skins->SetDBUserPass($DB_User,$DB_Pass);
$skins->AddDBParam('Description',$keyWord, 'cn');
$skins->AddDBParam('CompanyFor',$sessCoName, 'eq');
$skins->FMSkipRecords($skipSize); // BOB LOOK AT THIS LINE ESPECIALLY
$skinResult=$skins->FMFind();
print_r($skinResult);


## THE NEXT RESULTS BUTTON

<? if($skipSize+$groupSize >= $skinFound){ // DO Nothing - don't show
                                           // the button as not enough
                                           // records are found
} else{ ?>

<form method='POST' action='index.php?area=skinSearchResults'>
<input type='hidden' name='type' value='next'>
<input type='hidden' name='skip' value='<? echo $skipSize; ?>'>
<input type='hidden' name='Searchmax' value='<? echo $groupSize; ?>'>
<input type='hidden' name='keyWord' value='<? echo $keyWord; ?>'>
<input type='submit' name='submit' value='Next &gt;'>
</form>

<? } ?>

HTH
