Hey OES, very nice tutorial, but i have a simple question… How about if i want to send a friend of mine the url for the third page? I mean, how about make the paginition works like this
http://www.mywebsite.com/#3
So, someone can jump to 3 page without to open the first page and then clicks the 3 page link…
Cheers!!
Hi Harby.
The links will work like normal, so if you were to right click a pagination link and open in new window you will see the correct page. So copy link location and paste to your friend
.
I forgot to show in the screencast to turn off JS. You would have seen it works still the same.
Good Luck !
Thank you Lee
Great work Lee!
I’ve been looking for tuts on how to use codeigniter and i’m dabbling with Jquery right now too. The pace you go through the casts are just right without leaving out anything important. I for one hope you continue to make them and appreciate your efforts.
Can I ask what you have planned for further tuts?
Regards,
Alan
Hi Alan,
Thank you for your kind words. I have a number of casts planned for the short future but not decided in which order yet! I think I will try and cover most of CI important libraries like Validaton, Upload, Database.
Make sure you follow on the RSS feed or Twitter.
If you would like something please ask
.
Lee,
Sounds like a good set of tuts i’ll look forward to seeing them
. I’ve been asked to create a site for a local football team and decided to go with CI. I’ve done some uploads as well as DB work with it so far, though i’m interested in the way you’d approach such things since i am quite inexperienced.
I know its been killed to death but i’d like to see your ideas behind a login system. Whether it be for single users or user groups, and how it can be used in the CI MVC architecture. Just an idea anyway.
Thanks again for all your work,
Alan
I’m curious about the ideas you’ve thought of to include history tracking in this? (i.e. support for forward/back)
Most common practice was to use #3 or #4 and pull the page number from the hash, since updating the hash wont cause the page to reload >_>
Well the URL string is built with Codeigniters Pagination. So depending on which URL segement is used we can use that number for the offset. Keeps URL strings alot cleaner
Awesome stuff.
Screencast really helped me solve a bug in my pagination.
Thanks!
Hi Lee,
great tutorial! Can I ask you what tool are you using for debuging, it look like it could speed development (this thing with ‘Console’, ‘HTML’, ‘CSS’ buttons), may be it’s FF plug-in?
Been asked this one a few times now
.
a plugin called Firebug for Firefox. You can get it here..
the file in download link seem like for other tutorial
Which one ?
IS_AJAX is not working, i tried the following error comes
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Use of undefined constant IS_AJAX – assumed ‘IS_AJAX’
Filename: controllers/news.php
Line Number: 39
lee check this for me please..
thx
Its because you have not followed the tutorial
.
Open up /application/config/constants.php and add the following.
define('IS_AJAX', isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) && strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) == 'xmlhttprequest');you will then be sorted.
Thanks its working great….u r da best
in pagination links, please how can i remove the digits,
first and last button? i want only next and previous to appear it that possible?
im sorry im very to all these, but thanks i found some1 like u.
thx
I would use CSS to hide them.
So make sure you use all the customizing options available (use config/pagination.php) and give them all a class ie hidden (css = display:none) to the ones you don’t want to display.
Hope that helps.
Thx lee for your answers, its really working fine. 1 last thing i want ask is, can i display eg. page 1 of 10, 2 of 10 and so on ?
Hey Lee…
These were great tutorials i have ever found on CI + MySQL + PHP + Jquery + Pagination
it was the best help for me n my team. i was struggling on net since 2 months n found n its gr8 to know tht my pagination is working completely fine. many thanks to your screencasts and your hard work.
I had one query, I have two pagination instances in single page. But its not working and overwrites pagination links. Can you just let me know is it a possible scenario?
Thanks,
Swetz
That ’s awesome, Lee. Thanks for that
Great Tutorial for ajax pagintion.
Thank a lot man, who create this video tutorial for us.
Great tutorial Lee. I already had pagination working then I implemented your ajax calls and it worked fine except i have this little problem. On the pagination, when i click on the second page the ajax calls the controller and it returns the correct set and the div refreshes, now when i click on the third page the ajax gets called twice and 2 same exact sets of results come back, then on the fourth page it gets called 4 times, going back to any page make the ajax call the number of previous calls to the power of 2 !!!! so you can imagine the controller being called 16 times on the 5th call!
I have a screenshot taken of firebug console as i go between the 2nd and 3rd page, you can see the number of request it’s making! the screenshot can be seen at http://www.nayzak.com/ajax_pag_debug.jpg
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
-Thomas
Thank you very much for this tutorial, I’m amazed how easy it is. I hope it works for me since I have implemented query strings and several parameters in the URL.
