I managed to limit my search results to 7 per page, but how can I limit it to a maximum of 10 pages? In other words, how can I display 7 results per page, and only show the first 10 pages, or 70 results?
Thanks!
Thanks!

In search.cgi, sub search() at about line 264, add:
this should be the last line of code inside the LINE while() loop, as in:
LINE: while (<DB>) {
/^#/ and next LINE; # Skip comment Lines.
#stuff here
last LINE if ($numhits == 70); #stop searching at max hits
}
close DB;
Note that a better way would be to get all the hits, sort them randomly, and take a slice of the results. That way all records have an equal chance of being displayed.
