Description

I ran into the requirement the other day for a list of taxonomy-filtered nodes, paged by node creation date rather than by the typical X nodes to a page. Eaton ran into the requirement to put a "first/prev/next/last/goto index" type of pager based on a variety of arguments such as a particular taxonomy or publish date, etc.

Wouldn't it be cool if Views offered this natively? The ability to create a "browser" view which would take a given argument from list and use it as a way of paging back and forth between nodes/users/etc.?

Let's discuss. ;P

Btw, here is the approach I ended up using to solve this in the meantime: http://www.lullabot.com/articles/custom_paging_for_views -- not sure if we can use anything out of that, but just throwing it here for reference just in case.

This would be a great feature (in combination with my feature request: http://drupal.org/node/69872) :-)

This doesn't look like anything I can really put into Views specifically, though the link is really quite a cool recipe.

Hey webchick...think you could repost that in the Views snippets section? http://drupal.org/node/47412
