Need help with my pager PHP function now that I use mod-rewrite

Question

I am stuck now, here below is a snip from my paging code, this is the part the builds the URL for the paging links, it worked really great until now because now I am changi

Answer 1

This will do the trick

$uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$uri = preg_replace('#page/\d+/*#', '', $uri); // remove page from uri
$uri = preg_replace('#/$#', '', $uri); // remove trailing slash

$selfurl = $uri . '/page/';
$page = $_GET['page'];
if ($page) {
  $start = ($page - 1) * $items_per_page;
} else {
  $start = 0;
}
if ($page == 0) {
  $page = 1;
}

What the code is doing here is removing the /page/2 part from the uri if it exists and then you can modify the code as you want.
You mentioned that the code works if /page/1 part is not in the URI so removing that part if it exists should work too.
