texte = This might be what's throwing me. How do I determine when the last item is found and shown on pages that are created with [shownext] and then add something after it? Would I do a total of items found and then somehow incorprate the [end] into it? That might be my entire stumbling block. On an earlier recommendation, my search/results and shownext seem to work fine with our without the startat=1 added. That seem right? ot is it assumed that the results will always startat 1 even if not indicated? --- Tim Robinson
