my $pager = Data::Pager->new({ current => 1, # this is the current pager position perpage => 10, # the pager consists of this number of links (defaults to 10) offset => 5, # this is the number of results (fetched from the DB for example) per result limit => 100, # how far is the pager allowed });

# sample output from html table:

id ... ..... ... 1. ... ..... ... 2. ... ..... ... 3. ... ..... ... 4. ... ..... ... 5. ... ..... ...
