Pagination from library causing problem, help needed. - El Forum - 04-14-2008

I'm working on a library which needs pagination the code for the generation of pagination link is as follows (it is in the library):

Code:
function paginate($page_size){

            $ts=$this->CI->uri->total_segments();//for getting last uri segment

         $config['uri_segment'] = $this->CI->uri->segment($ts); 

         $config['base_url'] = $this->base_url; //has  http://localhost/myapp/index.php/mycontroller/show_tbl/

         $config['total_rows'] = $this->total_rows; //has 23

         $config['per_page'] = $page_size; //has 5

         $config['num_links'] = 5;

         $config['full_tag_open'] = '<div id="pagination">'; 

         $config['full_tag_close'] = '</div>';

         $config['first_link'] = '<< Start';

         $config['last_link'] = 'End >>';

         $config['next_link'] = 'Next >';

         $config['prev_link'] = '< Prev';

         $this->CI->pagination->initialize($config);

        $paging_links_ret=$this->CI->pagination->create_links();

        $this->paging_links=$paging_links_ret;

        return $paging_links_ret;

    }//function paginate close

Now the problem is:

The next link always goes to http://localhost/myapp/index.php/mycontroller/show_tbl/5 which ever the current page is like if I click next from http://localhost/myapp/index.php/mycontroller/show_tbl/15 (page 4)it goes to 2nd page i.e, base_url/5 and page 1 has no link in any case.

There are no previous or first link thought I'm at page x (any page). I'm not getting what is the problem and what am I doing wrong. This same function seem to work in a controller but its not working here. Please help.

Hi,

I think that you problem is at the config param of the uri segment.

Try to give it a fixed number ($this->uri->segment(4) - 4 is just an example).

I guess that this:

Quote:http://localhost/myapp/index.php/mycontroller/show_tbl/5

Code:
$ts=$this->CI->uri->total_segments();//for getting last uri segment

gives you the total number of uri segments, in this case = 6, but you want the 3rd.

Hope this helps.
