Limiting no. of entries in each page Options

[CKae]

This is the script I found to limit the no. of entries in one page:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><script><br />numberOfEntries = 3;<br />function getElemByClassTag(className, tagName){<br /> listClass = new Array(0);<br /> listTags = document.getElementsByTagName(tagName);<br /> for(i=0; i<listTags.length; i++){<br />  if(listTags[i].getAttribute("className")==className){<br />   listClass.push(listTags[i]);<br />  }}<br /> return listClass;}<br />blogheaders = getElemByClassTag('blogbody', 'table');<br />for(i=blogheaders.length-1; i>(numberOfEntries-1); i--){<br /> blogheaders[i].nextSibling.style.display = "none";<br /> blogheaders[i].previousSibling.style.display = "none";<br /> blogheaders[i].style.display = "none";<br />}<br /></script><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

OK, i set the "numberOfEntries" to 3
however, i soon find out that it only hides the the remaining 2 entries, but not putting them to the next page! therefore some of the entries can't be seen!
Is there any other scripts better then this one?

this is also from createblog but i think it's a different code...you can display any amount of entries up to 5...

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br /><script><br />numberOfEntries = 2; //Change this value here...<br />if(location.pathname=='/home.aspx'){<br />var tds = document.getElementsByTagName ('a');<br />for (var i = 0; i < tds.length; i++) {<br />timeString = tds[i].innerText;<br />if(timeString.match(/\d+:\d+ [ap]m\b/i)){break;}<br />}<br />stuff = tds[i].parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;<br />for(j=1;j<numberOfEntries;j++){<br />stuff=stuff.nextSibling.nextSibling.nextSibling<br />if(stuff.tagName=='BR'){<br />stuff=stuff.previousSibling;<br />}<br />}<br />for(i=0;i<20;i++){<br />if(stuff.tagName=='HR' && stuff.nextSibling.tagName=='TABLE')<br />{<br /> stuff.nextSibling.removeNode(true);<br /> break;<br />}<br />stuff = stuff.nextSibling;<br />stuff.style.display='none';<br />}}<br /></script><br /><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

OK, this script can limit the no. of entries in a page in "public" mode
but it also hides the link to the next page (default="Next 5>>")!
So i have no idea if this scripts shifts the past entries to the next page or not!
Therefore i'm not gonna use it...

However, thx anyway!

If anyone use this script and the "Next 5 >>" link is shown, please reply me!
so that i will know it's not the script's problem!

i don't think it shows the next 5>> link because you're using the code that only shows up to five. which means that you only want five entries to show and nothing else. so there is no link to other entries.

If you really need to view the older entries, try clicking a certain date on your posting calandar. That's the only way to use the code AND view older entries.

Yeah I don't think it shows the next 5 >>

like right after you get that code to your xanga. I guess the entries that you want it to show will all appear in your front xanga. That's what I know.
