texte = Paul,Thanks!Did this solo, and found it hard to get my head around the coding while doing the rest of it as well (HTML, graphics, product sourcing, photos, setting up bookkeeping, yadaa yadaa....). As budding entrepreneur (fingers crossed), I get to do it all, including taking out the trash. ;-)I think I shared this coding on the mail list, way back when there was first a flurry on the topic of ShowNext. I never could get the ShowNext to work properly while using a combination of link and form-based wesearching (probably my fault), so am only sure that this works with searching via links. I'll revisit this when I get some more products, as I would really like to offer a keyword search.As you saw, I did a simple ShowIf at the top of the results page, which could easily be modified to provide more information (items 21-30, or items searched for, etc.):
[showif [searchTitle]=All] Your search for All Products found [numFound] items: [/showif] [hideif [searchTitle]=All] Your search found [numFound] items: [/hideif]
| Then, at the bottom of the search results page, I used ShowNext to display the Next and Previous GIFs and links, grouping the results by ten (since I'm using thumbnail JPEGS of 2-3000K each and didn't want more than 30,000K/page). I also used tables and a clear GIF to place things:
 | [ShowNext position=begin&max=1] 
Previous [start]-[end] [/ShowNext] | [foundItems][/foundItems]
[ShowNext position=end&max=1]
Next [start]-[end][/ShowNext] | Hope this helps, Paul. In return, let me know if you have a nice way to combine form and link-based searches and still get this to work?Regards,Dale Stokdyk World Romance Romantic Gifts from Around the World http://www.me2u.com Paul Uttermohlen wrote:> >With a few stops and starts....have launched a new WebCatalog site!
