Hello,
I would like to know if it the category blog layout can display a certain number of articles (say 10) and when the blog reaches its limit it has an option below to go to the next page which shows another number of articles (10).
Thanks.

Yes you do this via a menu item that you setup as a blog category. In the parameters of the menu item you can set how many to show

I did that already but there is no option in the category blog layout in the admin backend that does that.

Just checked and there is under "Parameters (Basic)"
its labeled as "intro" and will only work if you have intro text set for each article.

Ok I tried it but it still shows all the articles in the category on 1 page. If I have 5 articles in that category and I want to show each article on each page of the blog it displays all articles on 1 page. So if that category builds over time to have 100 articles, it will display 100 articles on 1 page. I want after every 5 articles the other articles are pushed to another page in which you can choose page 1, 2, 3 etc to view articles 6 - 10 on page 2 and articles 11 - 15 on page 3 and so on.

Exactly and this is what will happen if you have read mores on the articles. If you cant get it working just PM login details and let me know what menu link and category you want this enabled on.

Thanks for your assistance, I sorted out the issue finally. I am also having another issue with Internet Explorer displaying the Recent vids module below the content fader but when I use it on firefox it displays properly to the right of the content fader. Is there anything I can do to solve this issue?

If you can post a URL I'll take a look and see if I can spot anything that might throw IE off.

Ok the website is test.sjcpos.edu.tt. Try the link in both IE and FF and see that the recent vids module goes beneath the content fader in IE only.
I also have another issue with the recent vids module. I entered text for each video and everytime the page loads it is shown very briefly underneath each video and then the text disappears.
Another issue with the recent vids module also is that the lytebox effect doesn't work for videos when I link it to other video hosting websites such as youtube, dailymotion etc...

Try removing the margin left and right here, does this help?
.s5_modulemm-white { margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; overflow: hidden; padding: 18px 14px 14px; } template.css (line 1648)

If you PM me login access to your site I can take a look and solve a lot faster, otherwise its going to be a guess and check until we figure it out.

I think it could possibly be the width of the recent vids module since we made changes to that awhile ago somewhere within the template.css file. If you can dig up a couple past topics I made.

I solved the issue. The rightset50 on the topic I posted awhile back was the cause of the problem. I put the rightset50 width down to 48% and that solved the issue in IE and I left the leftset50 to 50%. http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,14043.0/Now if you can help me solve these issues: I also have another issue with the recent vids module. I entered text for each video and every time the page loads it is shown very briefly underneath each video and then the text disappears. Another issue with the recent vids module also is that the lytebox effect doesn't work for videos when I link it to other video hosting websites such as youtube, dailymotion etc...

The text shows because the multibox Javascript hasn't loaded yet, theres not really anyway around this.
Can you post a URL of where its not working with videos?
