Dave,

Perfect-o!

I put the first line in.
$errors = '';

But left the die part out because it was failing on the 'recordNum' error. It is working as I need it, so I just needed to instantiate $errors to get the warning to go away.

Thank you as always for your great support!

Doug

Ok, you may need recordNum to tell it which record to get the prev & next records for, but if it's working as is - great!

Glad to help! :)

Hi, This works for me, only on the first page (when there is no number in the url) the next link does not display. How would I get this to display? it only works if I put mypage.php?1, but not if i put mypage.php.

Try replacing this:
'recordNum' => getNumberFromEndOfUrl(),
With this:
'recordNum' => getNumberFromEndOfUrl() ? getNumberFromEndOfUrl() : 1,

That's a "ternary operator", a short way of writing an if/else block. It means: if getNumberFromEndOfUrl() returns a value, use getNumberFromEndOfUrl(), otherwise use 1.

Let me know if that works for you.
