in thread Need help with pagination

HI thanks for your time : I made some change to make to code more readable : 
#!c:/xampp/perl/bin/perl.exe
use warnings;
use CGI;
use Time::HiRes qw(gettimeofday);
my $query = CGI->new;
my $dir = "C:/Users/41786/OneDrive/Documents/recordz1/";
print $query->header; 

test();
 
sub test {
    my $counter = 1000; #Should be get from db;
    my $string = "";
    my $first_page = 0;
    my $min_index = $query->param("min_index");
    if ($min_index = '') {
        $min_index = 0;
    }
    open (FILE, "<$dir/test2.html") or die "cannot open file $dir/test
+2.html";
    my $content = "";
    my $max_index = $query->param("max_index");    
    if ($max_index = '') {
        $max_index = 40;
    }else {
        $max_index = round ($counter / 40, 1);#Number of objects displ
+ayed per page.
    }
    my $last_page = $nb_page - 1;
    my $n2 = 0;
    my $count_per_page = 10;
    my $index_page = 0;
    for my $index (0..$max_index) {        
        $next_page = $min_index + 40;
        if ($index < $count_per_page) {
            if (($index % $count_per_page) > 0) {            
                $string .= "<a href=\"/cgi-bin/pagination.pl?lang=FR&a
+mp;session=1;min_index=$min_index&amp;max_index=$max_index\" ><-$inde
+x_page-></a>&#160;&nbsp;";                
            }
        }        
        
        

        $index_page++;
        $min_index += 40;;                        
    }
    $string .= "<a href=\"/cgi-bin/pagination.pl?lang=FR&amp;session=1
+;min_index=$min_index&amp;max_index=$max_index\" ><-\"Next\"-></a>&#1
+60;&nbsp;";                
    while (<FILE>) {    
        s/\$ARTICLE{'index'}/$string/g;
        $content .= $_;    
    }
    print $content;
    close (FILE);
}

sub round {
    my $n = shift || '';
    my $r = sprintf("%.0f", $n);    
    return $r;
}

    Again, please answer the following questions:

    What is the error you see?

    What is the output you get?

    What is the output you expect?

    I'm asking these questions since I don't know what you think is wrong with your code.

      Hi I don't get any errors anymore with the pagination here is the full sample script 
      #!c:/xampp/perl/bin/perl.exe
