output first and last numbers of elements returned from getPage or getResouces

that was a terrible title, but maybe I can explain what I’m trying to do.

I have getPage and getResources set up and working super awesome. according to the design specs I’ve been given, I need to display something that shows the current numbers of the elements that were returned. here’s an example:

[[!getPage?
&element=`getResources`
&parents=`2`
&includeTVs=`1`
&tvPrefix=``
&tpl=`listViewTpl`
&limit=`5`
&sortby=``
&sortbyTV=`Ele Name`
&sortdirTV=`ASC` ]]

This would return all children of resource 2, and would put 5 per page. I need to have someway to display "Showing 1-5" on page 1, "Showing 6-10" on page 2, etc...

Is there a placeholder that works this way, or do I have to do a bunch of javascript to sniff out how many elements are being displayed, and what the starting number is (the page has a link to return a certain number of elements based on a $_GET variable)?

I needed the same thing today for a pagination section on a news archive. I used the getResourcesTag snippet, but i think this also applies to your call.
It isn’t clearly documented or maybe i’m looking in the wrong place. A look in the cache files led me to the answer, all the properties/values you need are at your disposal:



Should do the trick.
