texte = The documentation is not so great here. I too havestruggled with shownext, so maybe my explanation willhelp you.Here is the code you want to use to display x-y.Showing items [ShowNext] [start]-[end] [/shownext] of[numFOUND]Copy and paste it in. This will give you somethinglike this:Showing items 1 - 10 of 100.I am going to throw the following in because you mightalso want to do this. Say your search returns 100items and you are displaying the results 10 at a time. Here is some code that will let you put links onpages so that the user can jump directly from page 1to page 5, for example:[ShowIF [NumFound]>10]Jump to page:
[ShowNext position=begin&max=10][math]ceil([end]/10)[/math]•[/shownext][ShowNext position=middle][math]ceil([end]/10)[/math][HideIF [NumFound]=[end]]•[/HideIF][/shownext][ShowNext position=end&max=10][math]ceil([end]/10)[/math][/shownext][/ShowIF]You should be able to just cut and paste this inplace, just change WHATEVER.tpl to the name of thetemplate file you are using to display your searchresults. This will only display if you your searchresults return more than 10 items. If you want toshow 15 to a page, just change the ALL the 10s in thissnippet to 15.Hope this helps!!Jeff--- Dennis J.
