Displaying multiple pages of results
Is there a code modification to display multiple pages of search results similar to the way search engines display their results? In other words, displaying the first 10 records with a link to the next 10 and so on...

I guess I had my max hits set too high. Actually, I misunderstood the meaning of the variable. I read it as "total hits" rather than "hits per page." Thank you for clearing that up!

I am not sure what you mean. Are you referring to spanning result pages (like Altavista)? DBMAN by default already does that.

If you set the $db_max_hits variable to a number like 10, it will add links to additional result pages.
