Now that your article has been "cut up", you'll need this code belwo the above code:
<?php
// Remove this code below if you don't
// what it to add breaks (<BR<) automatically.
$article = nl2br($article);
// Make sure there are no stuff ups.
if ($pages < 1) {
if (!$page || $page <= "0") {
$page = "1";
}
$article = "{ENDPAGE0} ".$article;
$pagea = $page - 1;
$pageb = $page + 1;
// Check that the page exists
$match_count = preg_match_all("/{ENDPAGE"."$pagea"."}(.*?){ENDPAGE"."$page"."}/is", $article, $matches);
if ($match_count == "" || $match_count == "0") {
$article = "This page does not exist!";
} else {
if( preg_match( "/{ENDPAGE"."$pagea"."}(.*?){ENDPAGE"."$page"."}/is", $article, $match ) )
$article = $match[1];
}
// Generate Page Numbers
if ($page < "1") {
$prev = "<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$pagea\"<<< Prev</a< :";
} else {
$prev = "<< Prev :";
}
if ($page < "$pages") {
$next = ": <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$pageb\"<Next <<</a<";
} else {
$next = ": Next <<";
}
for ($p=1 ;$p <=$pages ; $p++ )
{
if ($page == $p) {
$direct_bar .= "<b<$p</b< ";
} else {
$direct_bar .= "<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?page=$p\"<$p</a< ";
}
}
}
// Finish off the page
print <<<EOF
<p<$prev $direct_bar $next</p<
EOF;
print $article; // Put article onto page
print <<<EOF
<p<$prev $direct_bar $next</p>
EOF;?>
And that's it! You should now have three pages instead of one. This really helps to make it all look neat. This same thing can be done with MySQL or any other database just by selecting the article out of the database.
Enjoy!
