Default Chapter 2 - Iterator for loop example question

Hi,

I can not get my head around the best way to ensure that the books looped through in the for loop are from the correct page.

The books in the $bookList arrray appear to be all of the books and are not limited to a per page basis.

The only work around I can see is to use an if statement in the loop and use the key to test against the $page->getFirstIndex() and $page->getLastIndex() methods, such as below.

PHP Code:
for ( $bookList->rewind(); $bookList->valid(); $bookList->next() )
{
    if ( 
$key >= $bookPage->getFirstIndex() && $key $bookPage->getLastIndex() ) {
        
printf("    <tr><td>%s</td><td>%s</td><td>%s</td></tr>\n",$book['title'], $book['author'], $book['publisher']);
    }

Is there a simpler way to supply the for loop only the books from the page the user is on.

Will appreciate your help.

Cheers
Craig
