Hello everyone, I have followed only a short course in PHP and have a book 'PHP for dummies' but i can't find a solution for my problem. I'm currently working on a photoalbum. most functions work and i started to implement pagination on my photoalbum. where the page script works fine when i get a list of users from the db, it does not work the same way for my pictures. when the page is loading all seem to work fine untill i have more than 5 photos on the page ( $showRecords) also, when i change the second query to just load all the pictures from the db it shows the 5 pictures AND it shows how many pages exist. however, im stuck here, because when i click on page 1, 2 etc it gives me a blank page. when the query results are over 5 pictures in my current script (as seen below) i get an error message: *You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''0' , '5'' at line 1 * for some reason i haven't found a good solution yet. i hope some of you can give me a hand here to understand it better. any tips about the script and about the style are welcome, im still learning and could use some constructive critics. taco mathijs <?php > // this routine checks if a visitor has acces. no session - no acces > if(!isset($_SESSION['gbrid'])) { > echo "u moet ingelogd zijn als gebruiker"; > exit(); > } > > else { > > //-- link back to the last page. > echo "<a href=\"#\" onclick=\"history.go(-1)\"><strong><h5>Terug > naar het overzicht</h5></strong></a>"; > > $pag = $_GET['pag']; > > // first visit should be 0 > if($pag == '' || $pag == 1){ > $pag = 0; > } > // results to show per page > $showRecords= 5; > > > // first query - seems to be okay. the page shows up correct > $query = "SELECT * FROM fot WHERE locid= '" .$_GET['locid']."' && catnaam= > '".$_GET['catnaam']."'"; > > $results = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); > $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($results); > > $pages = $num_rows / $showRecords; > > if($pages>1){ > $myPage = $pag * $showRecords; > > // the second query. > $query = "SELECT * FROM fot WHERE locid= '" .$_GET['locid']."' && > catnaam= '".$_GET['catnaam']."'
