yes, the pagination library is what you want.

I would recommend having a DB table or session variable to store your search results in. That or you will need to write your search function such that you can return results 'n' through '(n+k)' for an arbitrary n and k value. Where 'n' is the result you wish to start at, and 'k' is the number of results you wish to show.

Thanks for your advise, i think i will build a set of controller, view( to list detail of the result ) and a function in model, can anyone give me other ideas?
