[jQuery] table pagination plugin

[Bhaarat Sharma]

Hi

is there a good table pagination plugin out there that explains how to
use it as well? I came across this example but it doesnt explain how
to use it :(
http://tablesorter.com/docs/example-pager.html


it just shows this snippet

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("table")
    .tablesorter({widthFixed: true})
    .tablesorterPager({container: $("#pager")});
});

If we were getting data from a DB...will we just do a one call to the
DB and then this plugin will page thru the results? or on every time
user hits next, this plugin has to call the DB?

appreciate if someone could explain this plugin a bit ...or know an
article that explains it.

Thanks
