    What specifically do you want help with? Writing an SQL query that returns results for a specific page? Finding out how many pages there are altogether? Calculating which page numbers should be displayed and which should be replaced by `...`? Creating the HTML and CSS for your page layout? Creating a link that makes a new request? What have you got so far and why doesn't it work? – Mark Byers Nov 22 '10 at 09:40

First calculate total number of records with its search criteria. Then divide it with record per page. So you will get Total Pages to show. say for eg 

$total_number_record = 30; 
$record_per_page = 10; 
$total_pages = 30/10; (3)

Now use loop to show links

for($i=1;$i<=$total_pages;$i++){ 

    echo '<a href=\'search.php?page="'.$i.'"&search="'. $_POST['search'].'">Page '.$i.'</a>';

}

this will shows link on your web page
