Now it??™s time to put some real interactive controls into the hands of your
Web application users. Dreamweaver includes a set of server behaviors that enable users to page through
your recordset much as if they were flipping the pages of a catalog.
You can approach Dreamweaver??™s record navigation through two avenues: One is a do-it-yourself route, and
the other lets Dreamweaver do most of the work for you. To better understand how record navigation
works, examine the piece-by-piece approach first.
Building record navigation links
As mentioned earlier, Dreamweaver includes a set of Recordset Paging server behaviors to control navigation
within a recordset. Again, the application is straightforward: Select the text or image you??™d like to serve
as a trigger and attach the appropriate server behavior. When selected, the trigger fires the server-side code

that retrieves the chosen record. If a Repeat Region is inserted on the page, the next or previous group of
records is displayed.
You can find five server behaviors under the Recordset Paging submenu:
n Move To First Record
n Move To Previous Record
n Move To Next Record
n Move To Last Record
n Move To Specific Record
Move To Specific Record is most often used in conjunction with a search routine or a masterdetail
application.
