    Posted: 03 March 2003 at 4:27am

Hi.

I was wondering if I can page a recordset from a MySQL-db. I tried the way I learned to use with Access (i.e. with rst.PageSize, rst.RecordCount and rst.PageCount), but it didn't do me no good (b-t-w, cursortype was 'adOpenStatic').

Does MySQL support paging (or is this db-independent) and if so, can anyone provide me with a way to do so (perhaps s.th. along the lines of the 'LIMIT'-clause in the SQL statement?).

Thanks!

Things could well become funky. I'm just here to regulate funkyness. (The Mexican)

That's what I found:  (Do a search on google, there is a bunch)

To page using mySQL you have to use the LIMIT command like this

SELECT fields ...
FROM table
LIMIT $offset,$pgsize

store the page number you are on in your html form as a hidden field or a cookie or whatever you're comfortable with so that you can pass it back to your ASP in order to figure out the next $offset (i.e. $offset = ($pg-1) * $pgsize)
