Hi,
I am trying to create next and previous links on a news detail page which would in theory load the same page with the next or previous record. The page would initially have been loaded from a link in the news listing page. I have set up the pages to my design etc but I am stuck on how i could do this from a detail page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

code from the listing page

<?php

require_once "/removed on purpose/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

list($newsRecords, $newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'news',
'limit' => '10',
));

?>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

</head>

<body>

<table width="559" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="newspagehead">SCS Group news centre</td>
</tr>
<?php foreach ($newsRecords as $record): ?>
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="newshead"><img class="newsarrowpad" src="/gfx/newsarrow.gif" alt="" width="16" height="12" /><?php echo $record['title'] ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="newssnippet"><p class="_5"> <?php foreach ($record['image'] as $upload): ?>
<?php if ($upload['hasThumbnail']): ?>
<img class="newsthumbpad" align="left" src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>" width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>" height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?>" alt="<?php echo $record['title'] ?>" />

<?php elseif ($upload['isImage']): ?>
<img class="newsthumbpad" align="left" src="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>" width="<?php echo $upload['width'] ?>" height="<?php echo $upload['height'] ?>" alt="<?php echo $record['title'] ?>" />
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

<?php echo $record['summary'] ?></p>

<p class="_0">[ <a class="qlmenu" target="content" href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>">Read More</a> ]&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="released">Date released <?php echo date('d.m.Y', strtotime($record['date'])); ?></span></p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="newsrule"><img src="/gfx/dot509.gif" alt="" width="509" height="1" /></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</table>
</body>
</html>

And this is the detail page


<?php

require_once "/removed on purpose/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

list($newsRecords, $newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'news',
'where' => whereRecordNumberInUrl(1),
'limit' => '1',
));
$newsRecord = @$newsRecords[0]; // get first record

?>

<tr>

<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php echo $newsRecord['content'] ?>

</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="newssnippet">

<p class="_0">[ <a class="qlmenu" href="<?php echo $newsMetaData['_listPage']; ?>" target="content">Back</a> ] < <a class="qlmenu" href="#" target="content">Previous</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class="qlmenu" href="#" target="content">Next</a> >&nbsp;&nbsp;[ <a class="qlmenu" href="#" target="_blank">Print</a> ]&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="released">Date released <?php echo date("d.m.Y", strtotime($newsRecord['date'])) ?></span></p></td>
</tr>
</table>
