Question

how to link the pages using codeigniter pagination?
the problem is with the variable $start its supposed to pass the start value to the database limit query . but its not.
Model
public function fetch_countries($limit,$start) {
$this->db->limit($limit, $start);
//$query ="SELECT * FROM mail_to Order By id Desc LIMIT ".$limit.",".$start;
$query = $this->db->get("mail_to");
//$qry=$this->db->query($query);
var_dump($query->result_array());
if($query->num_rows()>0){
return $query->result_array();
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
Controller
public function example1() {
$config = array();
$config["base_url"] = base_url() . "index.php/admin/user/example1";
$config["total_rows"] = $this->mdl_user->record_count();
$config["per_page"] = 5;
$config["uri_segment"] = 3;
$this->pagination->initialize($config);
$page = ($this->uri->segment(3)) ? $this->uri->segment(3) : 0;
//var_dump($config['per_page']);
$data["results"] = $this->mdl_user->fetch_countries($config["per_page"],$page);
//var_dump($data['results']);
$data["links"] = $this->pagination->create_links();
$this->load->view("example1", $data);
}

URI Segment should be
$config["uri_segment"] = 4;
$page = ($this->uri->segment(4)) ? $this->uri->segment(4) : 0;
In Model
public function fetch_countries($limit, $page)
{
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM mail_to LIMIT $page, $limit");
$result = $query->result_array();
return $result;
}
In Controller
public function example1() {
$config["base_url"] = base_url() . "index.php/admin/user/example1";
$config["total_rows"] = $this->mdl_user->record_count();
$config["per_page"] = 5;
$config['uri_segment'] = 4;
$limit = $config['per_page'];
$this->pagination->initialize($config);
$page = ($this->uri->segment(4)) ? $this->uri->segment(4) : 0;
$data["results"] = $this->mdl_user->fetch_countries($page $limit);
$data["links"] = $this->pagination->create_links();
$this->load->view("example1", $data);
}
