Issue:Count and %PAGES%

Description:	%PAGES% does not show total when count is used.

Problem

When using the 'count' parameter, %PAGES% only shows the number of rows retrieved, not the total number of pages in the query.

Could it use SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS and FOUND_ROWS() to retrieve the total? This would allow "Showing xx pages of yyyy" style headings.

Or am I just doing something wrong?

Cheers,

 David.

Indeed this is a known flaw. I wasn´t aware of the variables or functions you are mentionig. Could you send me a patch how to do it. I would then publish a new release ...
