Now that we have done [filtering](http://watch-learn.com/video-tutorials/making-websites-october-cms-part-41-ajax-frontend-filters) and [sorting](http://watch-learn.com/video-tutorials/making-websites-october-cms-part-42-ajax-frontend-sorting) with Octobers Ajax framework, we will add one more feature that will make our UI more approachable. This feature is pagination, because we are showing a lot of items and we don't want to show them all at once.

To do this we are going to use Ajax framework and it's `form update` option to refresh our pages list once the query has changed. As you will see this will be pretty simple once you know how to do it.

In this episode we are going to extend our Ajax filtering system with one more feature, and that is going to be Ajax Pagination, using the October CMS Ajax framework.

Ajax Pagination

In the [last episode](http://watch-learn.com/video-tutorials/making-websites-with-october-cms-part-13-creating-custom-form-widgets) we have set up our custom form widget, and displayed it on our form page. And now we have to prepare everything so that we can save the data that is coming through it.

First we need to create `Actor` model and then a pivot table that is going to connect our actors and movies. Next we will see how to prepare the variables that we are going to pass to our form widget, so that we can dynamically populate it and save it correctly to our database.

Along the way we are also going to learn a few new things, like how to debug our application, creating table accessors etc. It's a bit longer episode so I'm covering a lot of stuff.

In this episode we are going to be setting up everything so that we can save the data that we are passing through our October CMS form widget.

Saving Form Widget Data

You will probably find your self in the situation where you would need a specific input field in your October CMS backend, and that field will not be available through October or Builder plugin.

In those situations it is best to create your own custom form widget. That is what I'm going to show you how to do in this episode. And in the next episode we will connect that widget with our models, and save the data that is loaded from the widget.

In this episode I'm going to show you how to create custom form widgets for October CMS.
