I am looking for a bit of guidance as to where I am going wrong with this pagination attempt, below is an example of my index.php file - upon loading index.php everything appears to work as expected, I get my results from the database, it is restricted to the set limit and it has the correct number of links at the bottom, the problem is when I click the link to go to index.php?page=1 or index.php?page=2 etc it throws me an error suggesting my $query is 0.
This is a project I am using to self teach myself the language - so any general tips are also appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
<?php
error_reporting(E_ERROR);
require_once 'core/init.php';
$page_index = "index";
$output = NULL;
$page=$_GET["page"]; // get page ID
$page_limit = 8; // set limit variable to restrict data returned
if($page == "" | !$page=="1"){ // if page is 1 or first time loading set
starting variable for pagination to 0
$page1=0;
} else {
$page1 = ($pages*$page_limit)-$page_limit; // adjust limit variable
}
if(Session::exists('home')) {
echo '<p>' . Session::flash('home') . '</p>';
}
include('config.php');
include('header.php');
$query=$conn->query("SELECT * FROM `rif_listings` LIMIT $page1,$page_limit");
if($query->num_rows > 0) {
while($rows = $query->fetch_assoc())
{
$prop_id = $rows['auto_id'];
$prop_postcode = $rows['prop_pc'];
$prop_address= $rows['prop_add1'];
$prop_town= $rows['prop_add2'];
$prop_description = $rows['prop_desc'];
$prop_description = substr($prop_description, 0, 90);
$prop_rent= $rows['prop_rent'];
$prop_image = $rows['prop_imagethumb'];
$prop_postcode = strtoupper($prop_postcode);
$output .= "<div id='product_display'>
<a href='properties.php?id=$prop_id' target='_self'>
<img class='default_thumbnail' src='core.includes/core.imgbin/listings/$prop_id/$prop_image' />

}
} else {

Take a look at this line of code:
if($page == "" | !$page=="1")
Do you see the error? Your if statement will evaluate to true every time the page is NOT equal to 1. Remove the '!' and put one more '|'.
