I just construct my query in the normal way and append a LIMIT ...
OFFSET ... clause to control the finally select records.

Although this gets slower as the user pages and pages further through
the possibilities.  I generally find that this is self-managing though
and the user issues a different search.

Have to watch for search engines though - they are, unfortunately,
indefatigable.  If I recognise a search engine I don't provide the back
/ forward links...

For tables of a reasonable size (up to maybe 10,000 records) there is no
problem anyway, beyond that strange performance holes happen when
PostgreSQL doesn't always switch query plans at the right place...

Cheers,
