<form action="index.php" method="post" name="searchdb" id="searchdb">
<table>
<tr>
<td><tr>
<input type="text" name="searchdb" id="searchdb" size="25" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Go!" /></td>
</p></tr>
</table>
</form>
</head>
<body>
<div id='retrieved-data'>
<!--

<img src="images/ajax-loader.gif" />
</div>
<script type = "text/javascript" src = "js/jquery-1.4.js"></script>
<script type = "text/javascript">
$(function() {
//call the function onload
getdata( 1 );
});
function getdata( pageno ){
var targetURL = 'search_results.php?page=' + pageno;
$('#retrieved-data').html('<p><img src="images/ajax-loader.gif" /></p>');
$('#retrieved-data').load( targetURL ).hide().fadeIn('slow');
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
search_results.php
<!-- include style -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles/style.css" />
<?php
//open database
include 'config_open_db.php';
//include our awesome pagination
//class (library)
include 'libs/ps_pagination.php';
//query all data anyway you want
$searchdb = $_POST['searchdb'];
// make the query
$sql = "SELECT * from employer
WHERE username LIKE '%$searchdb%' order by user_id";
//$result = @mysql_query($query); // run query
//if ($searchdb) {
//$sql = "select * from employer ORDER BY username DESC";
//execute query and get and
$rs = mysql_query( $sql ) or die('Database Error: ' . mysql_error() . ' ' . $sql );
//now, where gonna use our pagination class
//this is a significant part of our pagination
//i will explain the PS_Pagination parameters
//$conn is a variable from our config_open_db.php
//$sql is our sql statement above
//3 is the number of records retrieved per page
//4 is the number of page numbers rendered below
//null - i used null since in dont have any other
//parameters to pass (i.e. param1=valu1¶m2=value2)
//you can use this if you're gonna use this class for search
//results since you will have to pass search keywords
$pager = new PS_Pagination( $conn, $sql, 3, 4, null );
//our pagination class will render new
//recordset (search results now are limited
//for pagination)
$rs = $pager->paginate();
//get retrieved rows to check if
//there are retrieved data
$num = mysql_num_rows( $rs );
if($num >= 1 ){
//creating our table header
echo "<table id='my-tbl'>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<th>UsernameFirstname</th>";
echo "<th>Lastname</th>";
echo "<th>Firstname</th>";
echo "</tr>";
//looping through the records retrieved
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $rs )){
echo "<tr class='data-tr' align='center'>";
echo "<td>{$row['username']}</td>";
echo "<td>{$row['lastname']}</td>";
echo "<td>{$row['firstname']}</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
}else{
//if no records found
echo "No records found!";
}
//page-nav class to control
//the appearance of our page
//number navigation
echo "<div class='page-nav'>";
//display our page number navigation
echo $pager->renderFullNav();
echo "</div>";
?>
