Cannot reverse code-search

Kanoberson · October 30, 2025, 8:35am

Hello everyone. Would someone explain how to fix my problem?

I just installed openemr 7.0.3.4. Then I loaded ICD 10 codes by Admin-Coding-External Data Loads. Then I proceeded to view ICD 10 codes I just loaded and without typing anything in the search field I clicked on Search button and it showed the first 100 of ICD 10 coded list. I then clicked on the next arrows it showed 101 to 200 of the list. Now here is the problem. When I click on the back arrow to go back to 1 to 100, instead of taking me back it shows 201 to 300. So foreward or backward has the same effect of going foreward.

Thank you

Addition to this post: The demo site is doing the same thing.

Thanks

I can reproduce this misbehavior. Do you want to report a bug on the repo?

Yes, if it is a bug, then I would like to report it, but I’m not sure I know how to report a bug. I am not a coder. I just thought that if there is a way to fix it, I would really appreciate some instructions.

Thank you,

It will require a code fix. I’m happy to open a bug report for you.

# Bug: Code Search Pagination "Previous" Button Goes Forward Instead of Backward… ## Issue Summary The pagination navigation in the code search interface is broken - both the "Next" and "Previous" buttons advance forward through pages. The "Previous" button fails to go backward to previous pages. ## Environment - **OpenEMR Version:** 7.0.3.4 (also reproducible on demo site) - **Code Type:** ICD-10 codes - **Interface:** Admin > Coding > External Data Loads ## Steps to Reproduce 1. Install OpenEMR 7.0.3.4 2. Load ICD-10 codes via Admin > Coding > External Data Loads 3. View loaded codes without entering search criteria 4. Click "Search" to display results (shows items 1-100) 5. Click the **next arrow** to advance (displays items 101-200) 6. Click the **back arrow** to return to the previous page ## Expected Behavior - **Next button:** Should advance forward to the next page (e.g., 1-100 → 101-200 → 201-300) - **Previous button:** Should go backward to the previous page (e.g., 201-300 → 101-200 → 1-100) ## Actual Behavior - **Next button:** ✓ Works correctly, advances forward (1-100 → 101-200) - **Previous button:** ✗ ALSO advances forward (101-200 → 201-300) instead of going backward Both buttons go in the same direction (forward). The Previous button completely fails to navigate backward. ## Root Cause **File:** `interface/patient_file/encounter/superbill_custom_full.php` **Line:** 709 Both the Previous (`<<`) and Next (`>>`) buttons call the same function with the same positive value: ```php <a href="javascript:submitList(<?php echo attr_js($pagesize); ?>)"> << </a> <a href="javascript:submitList(<?php echo attr_js($pagesize); ?>)"> >> </a> ``` The `submitList(offset)` function adds the offset to the current position. Since both buttons pass a positive offset, both advance forward.
