There is a lot of code there, Webtuto! I think over the years, an abundance of coders of all skills have tried to make pagination as simple as possible - to the point where we end up with many choices, but no standards. Pagination still remains one of those programming sub-topics that is often reinvented time and time again for each individual project - albeit some programmers may reuse their pagination classes, but they've still, at one time or another, reinvented the wheel by coding it from scratch.

With that said, it would be lovely to see a real solid pagination class that would become somewhat of a standard in the PHP world. For all I know, there could well be one - but when a search for a pagination class in Zend's own Zend Framework yields very few results, with the first result claiming it's not possible, it seems logical to assume that there is yet to be a pagination class that is both flexible and practical to have been the favoured method.
