A few days back I had posted an article Pagination with jQuery, MySQL, and PHP without refreshing page. I am modifying the old script and adding extra features like First, Previous, Next and Last buttons. Use it and enrich your web applications.
Database
MySQL messages table contains two columns msg_id and message
CREATE TABLE messages
(
msg_id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
message VARCHAR(150)
);JavaScript Code
This script works like a data controller.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/
ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
function loading_show()
{
$('#loading').html("<img src='images/loading.gif'/>").fadeIn('fast');
}
function loading_hide()
{
$('#loading').fadeOut();
}
function loadData(page)
{
loading_show();
$.ajax
({
type: "POST",
url: "load_data.php",
data: "page="+page,
success: function(msg)
{
$("#container").ajaxComplete(function(event, request, settings)
{
loading_hide();
$("#container").html(msg);
});
}
});
}
loadData(1); // For first time page load default results
$('#container .pagination li.active').live('click',function(){
var page = $(this).attr('p');
loadData(page);
});
});
</script>load_data.php
Contains PHP coding. Displaying data from the messages table.
<?php
include('db.php');
if($_POST['page'])
{
$page = $_POST['page'];
$cur_page = $page;
$page -= 1;
$per_page = 15; // Per page records
$previous_btn = true;
$next_btn = true;
$first_btn = true;
$last_btn = true;
$start = $page * $per_page;
include"db.php";
$query_pag_data = "SELECT msg_id,message from messages LIMIT $start, $per_page";
$result_pag_data = mysqli_query($query_pag_data);
$msg = "";
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result_pag_data,MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
$htmlmsg=htmlentities($row['message']); //HTML entries filter
$msg .= "<li><b>" . $row['msg_id'] . "</b> " . $htmlmsg . "</li>";
}
$msg = "<div class='data'><ul>" . $msg . "</ul></div>"; // Content for Data
/* -----Total count--- */
$query_pag_num = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM messages"; // Total records
$result_pag_num = mysqli_query($query_pag_num);
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result_pag_num,MYSQLI_ASSOC);
$count = $row['count'];
$no_of_paginations = ceil($count / $per_page);
/* -----Calculating the starting and endign values for the loop----- */
//Some Code. Available in download script
}
?>db.php
Here is the Database configuration file, modify username, password and database values.
<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'username');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'database');
$db = mysqli_connect(DB_SERVER,DB_USERNAME,DB_PASSWORD,DB_DATABASE);
?>
