jQuery pagination
Description
When you have a a large list of items (e.g. search results or news articles), you can display them grouped in pages and present navigational elements to move from one page to another. This plugin creates these navigational elements.
Usage
Include the pagination plugin script and the pagination.css file in your HTML page. In your HTML body create a container tag pair that will hold the link elements. Give it an id attribute (e.g. “News-Pagination”)
After you have loaded the contents and know how many items you want to display overall, create the pagination like this:
// First Parameter: number of items
// Second Parameter: options object
$("#News-Pagination").pagination(122, {
items_per_page:20,
callback:loadContents
});
This will create the navigation links inside the container. You will see the numbers 1-7, the first number is highlighted. When you click on another number, the highlighting changes and your callback function “loadContents” is called.
The plugin is highly configurable through the option parameter and all elements can be styled separately.

Very nicely done. I like the way the numbers change as you move towards the next pages.
Have you given any thoughts to Multiple databases in Single application? I’ve been hard pressed to find good resources, and judging from this article I’m guessing you may have something valuable to say. Thanks in advance!
We will try and post something on multiple databases in single applications too. Thanks for the good idea!
Your web design is the best! Really like the image roll over effect too. Are you guys giving out any templates for free
Hmm good idea. I think we might consider working on some WP templates for free. Thanks for the suggestion and I’m glad you like the design
i tried to use your plugin, but there is a problem. a couple of people filed the same issue as a bug on the jquery website. On demo.htm, changing items_per_page to any value besides “1″ causes the number of items shown on the page to remain at 1 but the number of pages to be reduced. is there a solution? thanks
there’s some limitation, if i set pagination links to show less then 4, it stops on first 3 pages..

Nice script – have you considered using a cookie to remember what page you were on? That way if your list contains a list of links, and a user is on page 12, and clicks on a link, then clicks back, it remembers he/she was on page 12.
Yeah that sounds good. We can either use cookies or # in the address but that would make problems for IE. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi,
If I set Number of pagination links shown = 3, from the second page it shows 4 links, how can i fixed?
Thanks
good jobs
