Only if no value is passed when the function is called.

splitPageResults('some query',32)

will result in $count_key and $page_holder getting the defaults listed.

splitPageResults('some query',32,'foo','bar')

will now results in $count_key => foo and $page_holder => bar

More examples in the manual, I'm sure...
