TalkPHP - PHP Pagination

Hello,

I need some assistance if you could give it, off course.

I have a news.php page that is part of a section of my main page that is intended to have a 3 last announcements but that i have done the split of the data already. I wanted to know how to paginate the split data in the news.php.

This is the news.php file

PHP Code:


		
			
<body>
<div id="container">
    <div id="content">
         <?php $newsHandler->displayNews();
         
         ?>
         
    </div>
    <div id="footer"></div>
</div>
</body>

I'm using the Maxnews system for the display of data and this is one of its functions in which i have added some things. this function is on another php file.

PHP Code:


		
			
function displayNews(){
        $list = $this->getNewsList();
      //I have to get the page number here so i can make the rest of the script
        $itemspage = $pages->current_page;
        $itemperpage = 3;
        // This counts all the files in the array
    $filecount=$this->getNewsCount();

$currentPageList = array_slice($list, ($itemspage - 1) * $itemperpage, $itemperpage);

echo "<table class='newsList'>";
foreach ($currentPageList as $value) {
    $newsData = file($this->newsDir.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$value);
    $newsTitle  = $newsData[0];
    $submitDate = $newsData[1];
    unset ($newsData['0']);
    unset ($newsData['1']);

    $newsContent = "";
    foreach ($newsData as $value) {
        $newsContent .= $value;
    }

    echo "<tr><th align='left'>$newsTitle</th>
    <th class='right'>$submitDate</th></tr>";
    echo "<tr><td colspan='2'>".$newsContent."<br/></td></tr>";
}

echo "</table>";
 
 
      if (sizeof($list) == 0){
         echo "<center><p>No news at the moment!</p><p>&nbsp;</p></center>";
      }
}

I was trying to use a paginator system but failed to do so because of some issues with the same. Righ now, i struggle at the moment on a way to get the current page, and do the rest that i think that's fine.

Could you help me?
