SQL: Paging Support
In this tutorial, Rudy explores the SQL to accomplish paging of content drawn from a database and displayed on a Web site. Paging can be done one item per page, such as for large articles or stories, or multiple items per page, such as for search results, when it is common to see, say, 10 per page.
By analyzing the performance dynamics of paging in general, and then exploring the specific SQL to carry it off, Rudy's tutorial will give you the confidence to implement paging on your own site.
