MySQL PHP search with pagination
===

im trying to implement a search for a project I'm currently working on. problem that im facing is when i go to the 2nd page seach result will be wrong.

here is the search form that is in my header.php

    <form name="search" id="search" method="post" action="search.php">
    <input type="text" tabindex="1" class="input" id="term" name="term" value=""/>
    <input type="submit" tabindex="2" id="submit" value="SEARCH" />

Here is my search page php code

    <?php include ('header.php'); 
    
    $term = $_POST['term'];
     
    	$queryn = mysql_query("select * from scripts where title like '%$term%' or discription like '%$term%' and approved='1'") or die (mysql_error());
    	$search_num_rows = mysql_num_rows($queryn);
    	?>  
    	<div class="cat_script_container">
        <div class="nresults">Found <?php echo $search_num_rows;?> results for "<?php echo $term;?>"</div>
        <?php  	
    	// How many adjacent pages should be shown on each side?
    	$adjacents = 3;

    	   First get total number of rows in data table. 
    	   If you have a WHERE clause in your query, make sure you mirror it here.

    	$catn = strtolower($cr['cname']); 	//Turn category name in to lowercase
    	$catn = preg_replace("![^a-z0-9]+!i", "-", $catn);
    	$limit = 2; 								//how many items to show per page
    	$page = $_GET['page'];

im wondering is the any way to give the search form action like action="search.php?term=keyword. i think if i can post the url like this i can use $_GET to take the keyworkd. if anyone can help me with this in anyway i really appropriated. thanks in advanced.
