How can PHP be used to create a pagination system for MySQL queries with dynamic increment values?

When creating a pagination system for MySQL queries with dynamic increment values in PHP, you can achieve this by using the LIMIT clause in your SQL query along with calculating the offset based on the current page number and increment value. You can also calculate the total number of pages based on the total number of records and the increment value. 

<?php
// Assuming you have already established a database connection

// Define increment value and current page number
$increment = 10;
$page = isset($_GET['page']) ? $_GET['page'] : 1;

// Calculate offset
$offset = ($page - 1) * $increment;

// Query to fetch records with pagination
$query = "SELECT * FROM your_table LIMIT $offset, $increment";
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

// Display records
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    // Display your data here
}

// Calculate total number of pages
$total_records = mysqli_num_rows(mysqli_query($connection, "SELECT * FROM your_table"));
$total_pages = ceil($total_records / $increment);

// Display pagination links
for ($i = 1; $i <= $total_pages; $i++) {
    echo "<a href='?page=$i'>$i</a> ";
}
?>
