<< prev - page 1 of 5 - next >>
How can I make it offer a clickable page number, like:
<< prev - page 1 of 5 - next >> go to page #__
or
<< prev - page 1 - next >> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
so that the end users can click to the page they want or enter in the page number they want?
Thanks!

Just replace "$newsMetaData" with your section name.
<!-- START PAGINATION CODE -->
<?php if ($newsMetaData['prevPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $newsMetaData['prevPageLink'] ?>"><< prev</a>
<?php else: ?>
<< prev
<?php endif ?>
<?php
if (@!$_GET['page']): $current_page = "1";
else: $current_page = $_GET['page'];
endif; ?>
<?php foreach (range(1,$newsMetaData['totalPages']) as $page): ?>
<?php if ($page == $current_page): ?>
<strong><?php echo $page; ?></strong>
<?php else: ?>
<a href="?<?php echo http_build_query(array_merge($_REQUEST, array( 'page' => $page ))) ?>"><?php echo $page; ?></a>
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php if ($newsMetaData['nextPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $newsMetaData['nextPageLink'] ?>">next >></a>
<?php else: ?>
next >>
<?php endif ?>
<!-- /END PAGINATION CODE -->You can also see all the $newsMetaData variables available to use with this code:
<?php showme($newsMetaData); ?>Updated: to include Chris's code that will preserve all the form fields submitted to the page, but will also set 'page' to $page

According to the above code the pagenumbers appear at the bottom of the inventory listings pages and that generally works great...BUUUUTTTT.....
when someone searches by a certain field, for example
http://www.sitename.com/inventoryList.php?listing_type=private%20party
the part of the url after the question mark disappears on the additional pages and it brings up ALL the listings. Is there a way to have the numbers at the bottom list out based upon what was in the originating URL so this doesn't occur? so if there were only 3 or 4 pages for private party ads then clicking on any of the 1, 2, 3 or 4 would display the relevant results?
thanks in advance!

One way is to manually construct the url so it passes forward any possible values, such as:
<a href="?page=<?php echo $page; ?>&listing_type=<?php echo urlencode(@$_REQUEST['listing_type']) ?>"><?php echo $page; ?></a>
Let me know if that works for you.

That works perfect for this scenario and also gives me the tool to modify for some other preset searches that are on the site. Thank you very much!

This code will preserve all the form fields submitted to the page, but will also set 'page' to $page:
<a href="?<?php echo http_build_query(array_merge($_REQUEST, array( 'page' => $page ))) ?>"><?php echo $page; ?></a>Does that help? Please let me know if you have any questions.

This works for me too - great!
However I hope you don't mind me jumping in on this thread but when I have for example 20 pages that match my search I get the following listed accross the page:-
<< < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 > >>
Is there a way to limit the number of pages showing to something like you have on this forum so it shows:-
<< < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ... 20 > >>
Thanks for your help
Andy
