Since I couldn't really understand your code, here is something to get you started:
$items_per_page = 4;
/* Get the total number of records */
$result = mysqli_query("select count(*) as n from ...");
$row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
$total_count = $row["n"];
/* Calculate the total number of pages */
$total_pages = ceil($total_count / $items_per_page);
/* Determine the current page */
$current_page = intval(#$_GET["page"]);
if(!$current_page || $current_page < 1) { $current_page = 1; }
if($current_page > $total_pages) { $current_page = $total_pages; }
/* Get the records for the current page */
$limit = $items_per_page;
$offset = ($current_page - 1) * $items_per_page;
$result = mysqli_query("select ... limit " . $offset . ", " . $limit);
To display the pagination links, use this:
for($i = 1; $i <= $total_pages; $i++)
{
if($i > 1) { print(" | "); }
if($current_page == $i) { print($i); }
else { print('' . $i . ''; }
}
