retrieving data pagewise

[Shashank Anand]

Hi all,

I need to retrieve data from mysql database using jsp and servlets and display it in pages, 5 records per page. And provide for link to next page to display next 5 records. I am using command like SELECT name,date,message FROM my_table ORDER BY date LIMIT 5 OFFSET 5 to display 5 records. Please anyone suggest me how to display the records in pages. I am using netbeans 6.5


Thanks in advance.

Since you already know about LIMIT and OFFSET you are obtaining the data in pages already. What's your specific issue?

Hi,

I want to know how to provide links to different pages with result got as above (using resultset and stored in arrays), if I am using the above code is a jsp page.



Thanks.

Links have nothing to do with resultsets. You'd simply need to keep track of what "page" you are one (perhaps in a hidden input) and increment it for "next" or decrement it for "previous".
