Creating dynamic results page
My client wants users to be able to search a database that I've already created in mysql. When the results of the search are output to the browser the client wants a maximum of 15-20 records returned at a time. If there are more than 15-20 records they want a 'next arrow' to see more results. Does anyone know how such a results page(s) could be created dynamically?

Re: Creating dynamic results page
it's called "pagination", and loads of people have explained it better than I probably could:

no problemo - sometimes just knowing what to search for is the proverbial missing link.
