How to pass $_GET in pagination in php -

this code works if running pagination, when there $_get variable passed shows first page , when clicked on next loads data in db , runs beginning.

i know how can pass $_get variable passed.

<?php      if ($currentpagerec > 1) {     echo " <a href='{$_server['php_self']}?currentpagerec=1'>first page</a> ";     prevpagerec = $currentpagerec - 1;     echo " <a href='{$_server['php_self']}?currentpagerec=$prevpagerec'>previous page</a> "; }  ($x = ($currentpagerec - $rangerec); $x < (($currentpagerec + $rangerec) + 1); $x++) {     if (($x > 0) && ($x <= $totalpagesrec)) {         if ($x == $currentpagerec) {             echo " [<b>$x</b>] ";         } else {             echo " <a href='{$_server['php_self']}?currentpagerec=$x'>$x</a> ";         }     }  }   if ($currentpagerec != $totalpagesrec) {     $nextpagerec = $currentpagerec + 1;     echo " <a href='{$_server['php_self']}?currentpagerec=$nextpagerec'>next page</a> ";     echo " <a href='{$_server['php_self']}?currentpagerec=$totalpagesrec'>last page</a> "; } ?> 

based on code, wondering whether should register global variables http://php.net/manual/en/security.globals.php

your code use variables globals, whereas in fact should refer variables, e.g.

<?php          if ($_get['currentpagerec'] > 1) {     //[etc] ?> 

further comment below: tried say: user $_get (etcetera), code appears based on (depreciated) global variabels.

--- edit ---

further updated shared code: have pass each variable again when using pagination, e.g. last line

<? // code define $totalpagesrec // code define $keyword // personal preference split echo between static texts , variables echo " <a href='".$_server['php_self']."?currentpagerec=".$totalpagesrec."&keyword=".$keyword."'>last page</a> "; ?> 

hope helps
