How to add next/ prev page function

[killerchutney]

I found a news posting script thats perfect in every way apart from the fact it does not have a previous/ next link function. It is flat-file based and saves each article in a new html document. here is the php code for the page where i'd want the prev next buttons to be.

<?

        require('config.php'); 

    $filename = "article_summary.html";

    #- open article summaries
    if(file_exists($filename)){
        $fh = fopen($filename, "r");
        $old_news = fread($fh, filesize($filename));
        fclose($fh);
    }

 
    #- get first five article
    $articles = explode("<!--ARTICLE-->", $old_news);

    $i=0;
    foreach ( $articles as $article ){
        if(count($articles)>$i){
            if($max_latest >= $i++){
                print $article;
            }
        }
    }

?>
