I don't use anything other than MySQL aswell, which is why my example usage of the pagination class was based on MySQL - heck, I didn't even know how to use the class without MySQL. But my point still stands. Why use something that is limited to one thing, instead of using a more "allround" solution. It will work with your database. It will work later when you do use results from another source, for example an image folder on your host.

It's like.. buying a stereo, and there are 2 types of stereos, one that supports only CD, and then another that supports CD and DVD. They're the same price. You only use CD, so you buy the one that only supports CD, but then later, you wanna use DVD cause everything moves over from CD to DVD, then you'd need to buy another one. In this case you would need to recode your whole script just so it can support pagination for data other than results from a database.
