Barney Gumble	Saturday 31 January 2004 1:54:59 pm My search is working fine, however I now want to add a count beside each found item, ie. 1. Homepage 2. Press Release 3. Press Release #2 etc. etc. I can make the first page work fine with a simple counter variable, but my problem occurs on page 2 onwards as I can't seem to access the offset, i.e. page 2 should start with number 11 rather than another number 1. $view_parameters.offset - which at first looked promising - appears to be empty. Any help will be greatly appreciated as always!
