Hi
I am executing a sql query in wich I set maxRows="${noOfRows}" in the sql query. The param value comes from the search page form. It works fine on the first time through. However as soon as I call the next set of results via <a href="maxrows.jsp?start=<c:out value="${param.start + noOfRows}" />">Next Page</a>. The page return s nothing.
The thing is if I the value manualy - <c:set var="noOfRows" value="2" /> - it works fine. Returning 2 results for every page.
Why?? Any help welcome.
