Paging with PHP?

Hi All

Apols for my volley of questions that will be winging their way to this NG,
but I'm a ASP programmer moving over to the dark side :0)

My first question is, is it possible to page data using PHP like you can
with ASP?

I'm sure it is as I used to use oRSV.GetRows in ASP to get the whole
recordset into an array and then work on it using divisions, mods and
things, but I don't know if it is easier or harder in PHP.

Can you help?

Thanks

Yes, but better, faster, more open, less hassle etc.

Easier.

Just go to php.net and download the manual. I'm assuming you're talking
about getting data from a database? In which case which one? With PHP you
can use 'em all. Simply use the appropriate functions, eg.
mysql_fetch_array and juggle as normal...
