$currentPage = 3; //$_GET['page'];

$pagination = new Pagination();

$pagination->setPaginationClass('my_custom_pager')
           ->setActiveClass('this_is_active');

echo($pagination->paging($numberOfRecords, $pageURL, $currentPage));

HTML Output

<ul class="my_custom_pager">
    <li><a href="/results.php" title="Page &laquo;">&laquo;</a></li>
    <li><a href="/results.php?page=2" title="Page &lt;">&lt;</a></li>
    <li><a href="/results.php?page=1" title="Page 1">1</a></li>
    <li><a href="/results.php?page=2" title="Page 2">2</a></li>
