I am doing a pagination in PHP from records in Database MySQL. I have in total 7 records to display, I have set numbers per page (resultsPerPage) as 2, so I will be displaying 4 pages. I am displaying results from two queries:
- First is table tblPaciente which shows information from my client.
- Second is table tblEvolucion which shows information which I required to apply the pagination. (7 records to display)
I am displaying a query from table tblEvolucion and displaying order by clmSerie column descending.
- Page 1 I want to display records with Description: "Record 7" and "Record 6"
- Page 2 I want to display records with Description: "Record 5" and "Record 4"
- Page 3 I want to display records with Description: "Record 3" and "Record 2"
- Page 4 I want to display record with Description: "Record 1"
My problem is when I press "Previous Page", "Next Page" or any of the displaying pages (1,2,3,4), the form is being reset and is showing me nothing but the FORM (id=frmPacienteBuscar) empty, with no results. I required to display it to me next page and remains table results (id=table1) from the first query and also remain the form (id=frmPacienteBuscar).
If I search again in the form after it has been reset it will access to the page that I went before. For example: - First I load the page. - Then I press page number 3 - Then everything is blank and I have to retype inputs with ids (id="searchByRut" and id="dv") - Then I will be accessing immediately from page number 3
I have tried to pass in the HREF of my "Next Page" the variable $searchByRut, with is required for me to search in table tblPaciente and tblEvolucion but it is saying to me that is undefined index after I press a link to access any page. Here:
$outputTblEvolucion .= " <a href='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentPage=$prevpage'> Previous Page </a> ";
I am trying to capture it as follows at the beginning of my PHP code:
$searchByRut = $_POST["searchByRut"];
I assume that I required to pass as POST in the HREF of every link to pages the RUT but I am not able to catch it and also not sure if that is the problem. Please let me know any clarification, thanks in advance,
