Navigation bar
This bar is displayed at the top of results and also at the bottom. Column headers
can be repeated at certain intervals among results depending on the value entered in
repeat headers after... .
The bar enables us to navigate from page to page, displaying an arbitrary number of
records (or rows), starting at some point in the results. As we entered browse mode
by clicking Browse , the underlying query that generated the results includes the
whole table. However, this is not always the case.
Notice that we are positioned at record number 0, and are seeing records in
horizontal mode.
The default display mode is ' horizontal ', as defined in $cfg['DefaultDisplay'] .
We can also set this to ' vertical ' if we usually prefer this mode. Even if our
preferred mode is set in this configuration parameter, we can always use the Show
dialog to change it on the fly.
