I have looped data from mysql, and it’s a pretty long list. What’s the most efficient way to do pagination? Currently, I am looking at this one: http://www.evolt.org/node/19340
Feel free to recommend a better one, thanks !

Rather than fetching everything from the DB like in the article, you could just SELECT the rows you can actually display – ie. if you have 10 items per page, just select 10 – and then selecting the total amount of rows. If the DB is large this can be much more efficient even though it’s two queries.
