Paging, Paging, and more Paging!!!!

If you follow my blog you’ll remember I posted about my first ASP.Net site experience and raved about the paging feature. Either way, you can read my post here.

Well, it seems this is the year clients want paging on EVERYTHING. :-) KM has been contracted to do the following sites with paging:

(shows visual element [+ backend] + database)

  1. PHP + Microsoft Access
  2. Coldfusion + SQL 2005
  3. Flash + PHP + MySQL

Every one of those languages/implementations called for custom paging code. I’m so sick of writing the variables totalPages, currentPage, etc! LOL. (clients; don’t let this deter you. we’ll still code it for you) :-)

Ultimately, it goes back to how easy it was in ASP.Net to add paging to a table of data (1 parameter and I’m done). I just wish it was this easy across the board.
