pgages go to page 2 and 3 but none of the items change.

I followed the video step by step, and tried the example code but the Pages change in the url, ?pg=1, ?pg=2, ?pg=3.....etc but the items inside the full catalog they stay the same 8 from the 1st page. I really am getting confused any help ro guidance would be appreciated!

$pagination = "<div class=\"pagination\">";
$pagination .= 'Pages: ';
for($i = 1; $i < $total_pages; $i++) {
    if ($i == $current_page) {
        $pagination .= " <span>$i</span>";
    } else {
        $pagination .= " <a href='catalog.php?";
     if (!empty($section)) {
            $pagination .= "cat=".$section."&";
        }
        $pagination .= "pg=$i'>$i<a>";
    }
}
$pagination .= "</div>";

Hi Michael

The code you've shown loops through the pagination to show what pages are available.

Do you have the code for getting the page number from the querystring and getting the list using that page?
