tell me more about what you have in mind -

a) a file Loaded browse, with the "browse area" limited - and with vertical scrolling ?

of

b) a page loaded browse with a scroll thumb?

cheers
Bruce

Hi Robert,

>> >a) a file Loaded browse, with the "browse area" limited - and with vertical scrolling ?
YES

this is more or less done (still needs a bit of work though).

>b) a page loaded browse with a scroll thumb?
YES

this is somewhat unlikely. The intrinsic limitations of page-loading mean that on windows there's no way to make this work right - on the web there is _some_ advantage to it - but it is very (disk i/o) expensive. It's not something I'm ruling out, but it's also not top of my list at the moment.

>> also can be implemented infinite scroll?

on a page? a sort of "facebook timeline" type thing?

cheers
Bruce

sometimes I have a browse with 20 or 30 records and it's more nice and efficient to see all of them and to have a scroll bar.
Buttons next, back, first, last ... are some how old fashion this days...next, next, next....
I agree if you have a lot of records then this options will not work. But for small no of records will be perfect.

yesss something like facebook :o)
