Hi all, This will probably go down as the silliest question of the day, but it is very early and I have been up all night....

Anyway, I am trying to use HTML::Pager after a search in MySQL. So, my question is how do I get the search results into Pager?

Thanks for reading!
Jim

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser warningsToBrowser/; 

$|++;
use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use DBI;
use CGI;
use HTML::Pager;

my $row;


# get CGI query object
  my $query = CGI->new();
  
  
my $dbname    = "DBI:mysql:farthing_valleyweb";
my $dbusername    = "farthing_farthin";
my $dbpassword    = "ginajim";

my $dbh = DBI->connect($dbname, $dbusername, $dbpassword,
          { RaiseError => 1, PrintError => 0 });

# The sql for selecting out of the DB
my $sql = 'select * from valley where category like "Real Estate"'; 

# Prepare the SQL and then execute it
my $db_query = $dbh->prepare($sql);
$db_query->execute(); 

# store each record into @results
while (my @results = $db_query->fetchrow_array()) {
        push(@results, $row);

} 


  # create a callback subroutine to generate the data to be paged
  my $get_data_sub = sub {
     my ($offset, $rows) = @_;
     my @return_array;

     for (my $x = 0; $x < $rows; $x++) {
        push(@return_array, [ $row ]);
     }
     return \@return_array;
}
;

my $pager = HTML::Pager->new(
                               query => $query,
                               get_data_callback => $get_data_sub,
                               rows => 100,
                               page_size => 3,
);

  # make it go - send the results to the browser.
  print $pager->output;
