You will need to keep count on the row you are at and create link back to the
page with the number of the next page (this on the new page, not the old one)

<a href="http://www.example.net/index2.php?nextpage=2" target=_new>Click here</a>

In the index2.php (you can call it what ever you want), you process only one
line at the time, depending on the value of $_POST['nextpage'] you will know
which line in the textfile to process.
