Here is the link that generates the first page (for some search I just tried that should be sorted by price): http://bestwinesupdate.com/data/results-test.htm?cart=110674798021965&date=01/26/2005&ipaddress=012.038.020.181&type=Red&price=&state=&variety=Cabernet%20Sauvignon&vintage=&sort=aspricesort%3D1&AllHit=1&startat=[startnum] Here's the link that you are displaying for page 2: http://bestwinesupdate.com/data/results-test.htm?type=Red&price=&state=&variety=Cabernet%20Sauvignon&vintage=&startnum=26 Note that this second search does not include any sort options at all, which is why it returns the data in a random order (actually in the WebDNA Best Match order). This is one of those times when using the appropriate tool will make your life much easier. In this case, the correct tool is [SearchString], which is a valid tag when within a [shownext] context and which can be used to magically generate the appropriate links or forms which will continue the search. The only problem is that the online documentation is WRONG (and has been for years); I've noted the details in the Interactive docs for the [shownext] context.
