Maybe I'm the only one, but I think pagination is evil and should only be used when absolutely necessary (like Google search results... no one wants to see a million things at once). Pagination on articles is just ridiculous.
I perked my ears at some bizarre method for pagination without PHP, but the title is just wrong here.
Actual title: "Pagination with jQuery, MySQL and PHP."
Which puts it solidly back in the realm of the boring. Pagination is something every beginning PHP programmer needs to puzzle out, but I find it quite hard to forget how to ride this particular bike.
