Sorry for the very stupid question but i still don't get my goal, that's is 
using Mike C. Fletcher method i will generate the list of elements again 
and don't know what size it is. For example :
[['p1','p2','p3'],['p4','p5','p6'],['p7','p8','p9'],['p10']]
I want to seperate this list again in order to using them later .It look 
like you go to the realestate agent website and find the list of property 
then you just want to display 3 properties per pages. And you can go to 
other pages which also contain 3 properties as well until the last pages 
which has only 1 items. For example:
Page 1: ['p1','p2','p3']
Page 2: ['p4','p5','p6']
Page 3: ['p7','p8','p9']
Page 4: ['p10']
I didn't sleep well due to this problem Can any help me.
