Hello,

I have resisted asking for help, because this just seems so stupid for me not to figure out.

I have a page that up until recently has been paginating the record set just fine. Now, the record nav bar is a) not showing 'previous and first page' indicators when it should, and b) evidently the recordset is somehow 'empty' when navigating to subsequent pages in the search results.

I am using DW7.01 on a PHP 4.3.1 MySQL 4.0 server.

I've been using the DW inserted nav bar and generated recordsets ever since I first dove into designing my site two years ago. And, have never had to look twice at them. Now, I can't for the life of me figure out why they have gone haywire.

If you can, take a look at this page (UTF-8 Japanese but the record nav is perfectly understandable);

www.chirowebjapan.com/lang_japanese/locator3.php?prefname=+%E7%A5%9E%E5%A5%88%E5%B7%9D%E7%9C%8C&prefcity=%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C%E5%B8%82&Search=%E3%82%B5%E3%83%BC%E3%83%81

Notice that the record count is 317 records of which 1-10 are displayed. No problem so far but now, click in the next page arrow....

Now, notice that the previous and first page arrows never display. Also, there is no data! The RED text at under the nav bar is in a 'show if recordset is empty' area and basically says 'No records found'.

This sucker worked great until a few days ago. Since then, I have tried rebuilding the page from scratch only to be hit with the same results.

Can anyone provide any insight as to what might be going on? ANY input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Hmmn,
I had something <i>similar</i> when building an ASP site.
Turns out I was using POST and the paging was using GET to pass the query and offset values.

Yeah, that happened a lot to me in the beginning. But, in this case it's not the problem.

I've used GET on everything in this navigation path due to problems some browsers have with passing utf-8 Japanese constants in POST data.

Thanks for the reply.
If anyone else has ANY idea what's going on here. PLEASE clue me in. I thought I was experienced. but, this is driving me buggers.

Thanks

Does anyone have any ideas?

Take your choice of text or compressed file. I am desperate for answers.

Thanks

Actually, the only thing that I have changed on the site lately is the main index. I restructured it to use includes for header, footer and menus. But, I cannot remember ever touching the affected pages. (They were perfect.)

After that... I wish I <b>could</b> think of anything that I have done. But, this occurred during a bit of a development hiatus, so very little was going on at all development-wise.

Quite off-putting it is.

Thanks
