Hello, Nikolay,
Don't use cursors; instead, use:
" select * from films limit 25 offset 0 ; "
and on the next query:
" select * from films limit 50 offset 25 ; "
and so on. You have to encode the current offset into the NEXT link,
either making it into a button inside a form, with a hidden field
containing the offset, or making it an HREF with URL-encoded data
(HREF="myform.php?mycounter=50").
I don't remember in which version the LIMIT option appeared; if your
version doesn't support it, move on to 7.0.2!
Have fun!
