Topic awaiting preservation: PHP counter for multiple page (Page 1 of 1)

i have a situation where suppose one page contains 10 peoples entry listing of total 25 peoples entry that means i need 3 page (10+10+5=25) to show 10 entry per page....my problem is i cant pass the variable to the next page using the next button ...it's one kind of forum...is there good working example around? i am sure i stuck here for some stupid reason and already messed up....any help?examples will be preferred....

to pass the variable on in the form (I'll assume each of the form elements are being echoed) simply add a hidden form element

echo '<INPUT type="hidden" name="yourVarName" value="'.$yourVar.'">';

Flat text file to store all of the data, just make sure to keep up an appropriate locking mechanism, or you could store the number of hits into a database.
