Use MySQL's LIMIT feature:
LIMIT 0,10 <-- will get 10 records, starting from the first one (0)
LIMIT 10,20 <-- will get 20 records, starting from the 11th

just add something like:

if (!$limitstart) {
$limitstart = 0;
}

$limitquery = "LIMIT $limitstart,25";

And reference $limitquery in your MySQL query.

Showing the paging mechanisms involves counting how many threads there actually are, then running a loop. Here's the code I used in mArticle to do it:

Code:

	$acount=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(id) AS id FROM $table[articlemain] WHERE section=$sec AND (notes NOT LIKE '%U%')");
	$count=$acount[id];
	$amntpages = ceil($count/$maxperpage);
	if ($amntpages==0) { $amntpages = 1; }
	$i = 0;
	$pages = "";
	while($i<$amntpages) {
		$i2 = $i + 1;
		$limit = $maxperpage * $i;
		if ($limit==$limitstart) {
			eval("\$pages .= \"".usetemplate("browsesec_pagecur")."\";");
		} else {
			eval("\$pages .= \"".usetemplate("browsesec_pageother")."\";");
		}
		$i++;
	} //end while $i<=$amntpages

Obviously, you'll have to change the variable names and change the references to "usetemplate"
