Hello Shannah;

I m looking for a tip :

How to add first and last with prev_link and last_link with the jump menu ?

In Skintool.php, i see

-getNextLinkHtml

-getPrevLinkHtml

Second point :

How can i make an alphabetical pagination in replacement of numerical pagination, with the first letter of the record of the page.

Is that possible to have a drop down menu for the number of items to show ?

And last one : Where is your blog, it’s unreachable…

Thanks you for your great apps !

Sorry for my poor frenchglish

Currently this is not built in. Possibly in future versions.

This would have to be a custom bit of code by you, and it might prove a bit tricky…. can’t really give you a one liner that is going to do the trick.

Yes. Possible, but you’d have to generate that list yourself. The key is that the ‘-limit’ GET parameter is how you set how many records to show per page. E.g. -limit=10 would show 10 records per page.
