   Hey guys,

   I'm new in this forum and I had a question.
   I've been working on a new WordPress theme and instead of having a two links 'Older entries'/'Newer entries' on the bottom of each blog page(, which i would usually use), i decided to actually print all the numbers of the existing pages to let the viewer decide which page to go to.
   Eg: First Page 1 2 3 4 5 .... Last Page

   Here's my code:
   

   if(is_home()) {
   		$count = wp_count_posts();
   		$p_posts = $count->publish;
   
   		if($p_posts % 4 == 0)
   			$pages = ($p_posts / 4);
   		else
   			$pages = ($p_posts / 4) + 1;
   
   		$i = 1;
   
   		echo '<a href="/?paged=1" style="margin-right:150px;">First Page</a>';
   
   		while($i <= $pages):
   			echo '<a href="/?paged=';
   			echo $i;
   			echo '">';
   			echo $i;
   			echo '</a>';
   			$i++;
   		endwhile;
   
   		echo '<a href="/?paged=';
   		echo $pages;
   		echo '" style="margin-left:142px;">Last Page</a>';
   	}
   }

   [You must know that i am new to php, so it might not be the best solution..]

   Now, let's assume I was on page 2 'index.php/?paged=2', I want the link to lead to page 2 to be a different style, so people know that they are on page 2..

   I was thinking of an if statement, but i can't think of a condition to put... I need to see on which page i am first (/?paged=2 or /?paged=3), but how can i check that? I've been through the wp functions reference, but didn't find anything..

   Does anyone have a solution?
   If my question isn't clear, i apologies for my english;)

   Thanks in advance.
