Xoops!! Still no one could answer me....?

Not sure this is a XOOPS (2.0.6) core or just the guestbook module issue, I have this 'very simple' error -

When the messages reaches its 'numbers per page', the "next page" (2, 3, 4....) just did not work! If you click on it, the URL DID return a new value (myguestbook/index.php?start=10, 15, 20....) but after reload, the page still (and ALWAYS) stays at the first page.

All other XOOPS original modules work just fine but this guestbook.

My environment -
Windows 2000, IIS with PHP4, MySQL, XOOPS 2.0.6, Using Traditional Chinese.

I started to debug,

1. first we will think it might be the non-western character issues, well, I did create a brand new ENGLISH only sub site, fresh install a XOOPS 2.0.6 and separated database, install the guestbook under it, the results ARE THE SAME!

2. Then I started to think about this might be the guestbook issue, I started to install other guestbooks -
XtremGuestbook, xtremUserGuestbook, XFGuestbook... well, turned out they ALL have the same problems, how come??
You just can't jump to next page(s).

(Even worse, some guestbooks modules does not allow me to enter the "configuration" page in Admin. But they all can allow to enter new messages, Narga's Guestbook has no problem in Admin mode.)

3. Is it a server issue? I started to create another new sub-site and fresh installed an "e-xoops" module, pure english enviroment, added "XtremGuestbook" module for e-xoops and vola! The Guestbook works just fine, you have NO problem to jump in between any page and it displays every page correctly.
(seehttp://www.e-xoops.com)

The issue is, i want to use Xoops, not e-Xoops! And this "simple error" that can't jump to next page of guestbook just drives me crazy. Did anybody have a similar issue?

PS: I did contact the Narga's author, and he was kindly making a revised templates version for me. I did uninstall the guestbook from the Admin Panle and reinstall it, updated the templates (even delete all templates_c), flushed the database, but the results are the same!
