Hi,
I have a table for my dynamic pages! this table has a field named PageContent (long text)! I use [--pagebreak--] tag during data entry! how may i split the page content using this tag?
typically i can use explode to do that!

please post your sample code !

Not sure what you want. Moreover you said that you have tried it using php explode() function.

So, what is the actual goal that you want to achieve regarding it?

Hi,
i need to split the page content to multiple page (very long text). So, i can post articles and so on.
Any suggestion?

There is no such built in feature at the moment.

Google "virtualpagination".

Read the PHPMaker help file and look for Server Events and Client Scripts.

Hi,
i used "Row_Rendered" server event and my problem fixed. i used "[--pagebreak--]" as my split tag. complete code for my pagination:

		if ($_GET["page"] == ""){
		$page = 0;
		} else {
		$page = @$_GET["page"];
		}
		$contentpages = explode( "[--pagebreak--]", $this->PageContent->CurrentValue);
		$pageno = count($contentpages);
		  if ( $page == "" || $page < 1 )
		  $page = 1;
		  if ( $page > $pageno )
		  $page = $pageno;
		  $arrayelement = (int)$page;
		  $arrayelement --;
		  $pagebody = "$contentpages[$arrayelement]";
		  $pagebody    .= "<br/>";      
		  if ($pageno > 1) {
		  for($i = 1; $i <= $pageno; $i++){
		  if(($page) == $i){
		  $pagebody .= "<span class=\"pagenumstatic\">$i</span>&nbsp;";
		  } else {
		  $pagebody .= "<span class=\"pagenum\"><a href=\"pagesview.php?showdetail=&PageID=&page=$i\">$i</a></span>&nbsp;";
		  }
		  }
		  }
		 $this->PageContent->ViewValue = $pagebody;

thanks
