Re: How to set "paginate -> limit" on the fly in my views?

Well as paginate expects the variables page, sort, direction and limit
from a GET request you would have to submit the form and redirect, or
use javascript to grab the textfield value form the right url and
submit a new GET request.

Have a look at the following page:
http://new.localcause.org.uk/articles

I include a form at the top of my index including two select lists
with onchange events which call the below javascript function

<script>
// <![CDATA[
function indexOptions() {
var sort = $('IndexOptionSort').getValue();
var direction = $('IndexOptionDirection').getValue();
window.location = "/<?php echo $this->params['controller']; ?>/<?
php echo $this->params['action']; ?>/sort:" + sort + "/direction:" +
direction;
}
// ]]>
</script>

P.S. I am a self-confessed novice with javascript so know this could
probably be done better
