  1. Pass a $liststart value in as a parameter to your code (get it with $liststart = $_REQUEST['liststart']).
  2. Then adjust your loop to loop from $liststart to $liststart+10.
  3. Make a button that onClick, goes to your code above with the new $liststart value. for example for the 'next' button on the first page, use echo "' onClick='location.href=\"yourcodeabove.php?liststart=".$liststart+10."\";'>";

or if you prefer, you could do it without javascript by making the next and prev buttons their own forms. like this:

<FORM METHOD="LINK" ACTION="yourcodeabove.php?liststart="<?php $liststart+10 ?>">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="next->">
</FORM>

close out your other form first (which doesn't look like it needs to be a form actually... could be a div just as well). forms usually have 'actions' and are submitted with buttons but since you'll have 2 buttons (next and prev) each could be their own form with either the javascript onClick or the form method.

If you use mysql this should work:

$page = $_GET['page'];
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM some_table LIMIT $page, 10");

And do some work with $query variable, your links should be something like this:

<a href="/somefile.php?page=<?= $current_page + 1;?>">Next</a>
