Great :) Thanks for the tip :) I learnt about your book from the conversations on the list. I just ordered it this morning, and looking forward to see it tomorrow PM. Page 608 will definitely be the first page I read. :) Yeah, I won't have an overwhelming number of records to deal with. Besides reduce roundtrips to the server, I want to keep the presentation layer flexible. With maxLinesPerPage kept in XSLT, page layout can be controlled without have to modify the XML generation code.

If you've been following other threads you'll have seen the advice that if you're getting the data from the database it's best to generate one XML document for each displayed page of data. However, at the level of 1000 records, handling a single document is quite feasible and despite what others have said, if you're doing the processing in the client I think it's quite a reasonable option, because it reduces the number of hits on the server. You'll find an example using this sort of architecture on page 608 of my book*: it's not doing paging in the way you describe, but a similar kind of interactive navigation within a dataset.
