Items count and AJAX problem about jpages HOT 6 OPEN

Hi,

Thanks :)
This plugin offers only client side pagination, at least for now, maybe I'll add Ajax support in future releases.
I believe you're trying to paginate all the records in your DB but you can only apply the plugin to items that are already loaded in the page, so it won't work.

But you can always re-apply the plugin after an Ajax call. Is that what you're trying to do?

man,
thanks alot for the answer,
the problem is as you have said i am trying to paginate the database, and as you said the plugin will only paginate on client side, but what i want is to speed up things and only return 10 items per page, the only thing missing is to make the plugin able to inject number of pages based on total number of database records so each time you click on a page number a new request happens and you see the next batch of returned items.

Hi,

You're right! It's something I want to add in the future since it would make the plugin much more flexible.
But for now it's not possible since it's only a client side pagination plugin.
Stay tuned for future releases cos when I have some time I'll add Ajax requests.

I'm facing the same problem here but i think the best solution is to "apply the plugin to items" as luis said. but surely we are waiting your Smart solution & Update.

I know this is an old thread, but I found a solution at least for how I'm using jPages.

In my case, I am simply using ajax to return a list of items (in other words, I'm pulling my items at once and just want to paginate the results). I dug around some jQuery documentation and found out about ajaxSuccess. The following code works for me, and perhaps it could be helpful to someone else.

jQuery(document).ajaxSuccess(function(event, request, settings) {
    jQuery(function($) {
        addScript($this->filePaths->js_plugins.'jPages.min.js') ?>
            $("div.holder").jPages({
                containerID: "searchlist"
            });
    });
})

Code is taken from my Joomla script (hence the 'addScript' call) but the basic principle is simple. Upon ajax success embed jPages and then invoke it. Hopefully someone can tweak this and make it better. I'm just happy that I can keep using jPages. :)
