Hi
How to make a back link on article page to list page the same which came? I have few list page, on each list page have links to 2 articles, articles have a back link POWRÓT < [= Back]. I would make a link on article page which will enable me to return to the page from which I came not to the first.

Hi esteban,

So the problem is that users might be on page 3 of your list page (which uses pagination,) click a link to a detail page, and you want to provide a link back to page 3 of your list page instead of page 1?

This is a little tricky, but I have a solution for you.

On your list page, change the "_link" code from this:

Code
<a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>">

...to this:

Code
<a href="wydarzenia-art.php?page=<?php echo @$_REQUEST['page'] ? htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST['page']) : 1 ?>&num=<?php echo $record['num'] ?>">

...replacing the code in red with the name of your record variable.

And then change the link in your detail page from:

Code
<a href="wydarzenia-lista.php">

...to this:

Code
<a href="wydarzenia-lista.php?page=<?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$_REQUEST['page']) ?>">

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.
Chris

Almost working :-) Look at link: http://goo.gl/2hct
there displays a &num=3"> i don't know how improve code and the link is wrong not to the right article.

You wrote: "...replacing the code in red with the name of your record variable. " I do not know how to do it. What is this record variable in my case?

Thanks Chris

Hi esteban,

Sorry, my fault. I had an extra "> in the code. I've edited my post above to remove it. Please remove the code in red below from your wydarzenia-lista.php page:

Code
<a href="wydarzenia-art.php?page=<?php echo @$_REQUEST['page'] ? htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST['page']) : 1 ?>">&num=<?php echo $record['num'] ?>">

It must be already correct since the code is working.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Chris

I'm trying to achiev the same thing but am confused by "wydarzenia-lista.php". Is this something specific to esteban?

Can you give me the generic way to solve this problem?

Can you not use a PHP referrer. So:
Code
<?php 
$ref=@$HTTP_REFERER;  
 
echo '<a href="$ref "> <<back </a>'; ?>
Does that help?

Does that not assume that they have always come from the news listing page? Sometimes they may have come from a third party link such as a search engine.

It will always go back to the exact previous page, i.e:

- link from Google
- Page 8 0f 15 (for example) of your listings page

Does that help? Best bet is to try it & see if it does what you're after!

Cheers

Hi pod9,

Yes, "wydarzenia-lista.php" was specific to Esteban. For your own page, simply replace that with your own list page filename. :)

Chris,
Is it possible to make this a default setting for CMS Builder installations? So that when you generate the code for the page, the back link is already in place and ready to use?

Hi Zick

I can add it to the list. Not sure when or how that will be implemented, but it's on the list!

Hey Chris,
I ran this through W3C validation and it was producing errors, so I made a slight change and it passed validation. Below in red is the change I made:

Code
<a href="wydarzenia-art.php?page=<?php echo @$_REQUEST['page'] ? htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST['page']) : 1 ?>&amp;num=<?php echo $record['num'] ?>">
