Yii get pagesize in view of ClistView - php

Question

How would i get the current pagesize in my View? I want to be able to add a banner when half the pagesize is reached.
If the page size is 10, insert a banner at position 5
i tried adding this in my view.php
if ($index == ($dataProvider->pagination->pageSize / 2)) { ... }
and this my index.php
$this->widget ( 'site.common.extensions.EListView.EListView', array (
'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
'itemView' => '_view_gallery',
'pagerCssClass' => 'pagination',
'template' => '
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="pull-right">{sorter}</div>
<div class="pull-left"></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">{items}</div>
</div>
<div class="row padding-top-20px">
<div class="col-md-12">
{pager}
</div>
</div>
</div></div>',
'pager' => array (
'id' => '_pagination',
'class' => 'LinkPager',
'header' => '',
'htmlOptions' => array (
'class' => 'pagination'
)
),
'emptyText' => '<div class="alert alert-info">No result found.</div>'
)
);
but nothing happens.
I'm currently using this extension to create a perpage page size.
http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/elistview
also tried without using this extension, but still no luck. I'm using Yii 1.1.16.
any ideas?

In your _view_gallery.php you can use special variables available for CListView and CGridView (http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/252/special-variables-in-cgridview-and-clistview/) in order to get the pageSize.
That could look like this:
if($widget->dataProvider->pagination->pageSize == 10){
//do something here
}
Accessing $dataProvider directly won't result in anything because that variable means nothing to the view.
