Pagination 101

Article by Faruk Ateş, [originally on KuraFire.net][original] which is currently down

One of the most commonly overlooked and under-refined elements of a website is its pagination controls. In many cases, these are treated as an afterthought. I rarely come across a website that has decent pagination, and it always makes me wonder why so few manage to get it right. After all, I'd say that pagination is pretty easy to get right. Alas, that doesn't seem the case, so after encouragement from Chris Messina on Flickr I decided to write my Pagination 101, hopefully it'll give you some clues as to what makes good pagination.

# Knife Configuration File.
#
# This is a Ruby DSL to set configuration parameters for Knife's
# general options. The default location for this file is
# ~/.chef/knife.rb. If multiple Chef repositories are used,
# per-repository configuration files can be created. A per repository
# configuration file must be .chef/knife.rb in the base directory of
# the Chef repository. For example,
#
#     ~/Development/chef-repo/.chef/knife.rb

1. Get your cookie. Either proxy your iPhone/iPod/iPad and record the cookie using the proxy server of your choice or capture the request using your AP with Wireshark or similar
2. Make sure you have a cookie like AKCNTYPE=WIFI; AKID=abc; token=expires... and put it in ~/cookie
3. Find the name and day of the artist you want to load, replace whitespace with underscores.
4. Launch the script: ./itunes-festival.sh day artist
5. Have fun.
