Continuing working on paged data sources…

• Got paged data working within a Flex data grid, it loads pages of 100 records as they are viewed in a datagrid.  The datagrid scrollbar appears as if ALL the records are currently loaded.  While scrolling down rapidly you will see blank rows that quickly fill in with data as the pages are loaded.  It’s quick and quite seamless.
• Unfortunately this implementation doesn’t allow for sorting or filtering and requires a special arraycollection and data handling code on the flex side.
• I’m going to take a step back and see how lazy loading works.  There is apparently an implementation that allows lazy loading, is bindable, and requires no special code on the Flex side.  Looking in to it.

Also working on installing Helios and configuring Dynamic web applications. following phil’s notes.
