Re: [fw-mvc] Zend_Paginator Partial

In your view script:

<?php echo $this->paginationControl($this->paginator, 'Sliding', 'pagination_control.phtml', array('specification' => $this->currentSpecificationUID)); ?>

The method signature is:

paginationControl(Zend_Paginator $paginator, $paginationType, $paginationPartialScript, Array $partialParameters = array);

So In my above example I passed the 'specification' parameter and it's available in the pagination control partial as $this->specification.

I think this should be noted in the documentation on Zend_Paginator somewhere. Shall I create an issue?

Kind Regards,

Daniel Skinner

Could you give an example on how   you would  pass the search parameters to the pagination control helper?  thanks.

Thanks Matt, I didn't realise that you could pass parameters to the PaginationControl partial - I should have looked at the API docs in more detail.

One way to do it:

1. Submit form as GET
2. Controller looks at Request object to pull appropriate search parameters
2. Uses search parameters to create SQL query, which it passes to paginator
3. Passes paginator and search parameters (including current page number) to PaginationControl helper

   I am using Zend_Paginator in a very standard setup.

   My index action of the controller produces a form. Also, if the
   form is filled in (i.e. is valid), it (the same index action)
   proceeds to generate a collection of objects filtered by
   information entered into the form. This collection of objects in
   then paginated and all is well for the first page of results.

   When I click onto the next page, the form data is not sent and so
   there is no model for the paginator to work with.

   My immediate idea was to add an additional parameter to the
   first/next/last/prev links which could be used to regenerate the
   same model as the paginator was using with page 1.

   The problem is that the pagination control is a partial and I cant
   figure out how to pass global view variables to it.

   Is there a way to do this or is my general approach (i.e. adding
   query strings to the paginator URI's) wrong?
