Displaying only a certain number of results of a query

Hi all

I'm a rookie and I built a little application. If have a query which displays over 500 results. I would like to display 10 results on a page and dynamically display a footer containing numbered links to the following/next sets of my results (blocks of 10). Is there some sample code or even ready-to-implement script available? For me its really important that I can design it the way I want so an easy understandable CSS or whatever would be great.

Thank you for hints and links.
