flash data integration: Hello all-

I need some advice. I have played around with developing Rich Internet Apps
via flash for a bit, but I have hit something that I am seeking some advice
concerning. I am creating an "Amazon.com"'ish search application, that will
performs a search based on a user's input, and returns the result data in an
XML packet. The data is book information (ie. title, publisher, description,
etc).

How could I best use the XML packet to display the data. This data can be
anywhere from 1 record, to 2000 records, so I am not quite sure how to
pleasantly display this, so a user can scroll through all results and view the
information within the Flash app. If anyone has a suggestion, I would greatly
appreciate it. I am starting to look towards non flash alternatives, such as
just using a style sheet to display the data, but would like to have some more
dynamic interaction to the results.

Thanks again for any help.

Personally I don't see why I would want to get 2000 results from a database and
present them in a RIA. The essence of a RIA is creating a compelling user
experience. I would never scroll through 2000 results. Anything above 100 is
absolute waste of time. I would work on an app that narrows the selection and
getting the top 50 results from the database. I guess I would use list or
comboboxes and let the user select category - subcategory - publisher - writer.
And I would think hard on extra selection methods to get as much information as
possible to perform a query on the database.
Don't build a Amazon like thing. Build something better! You have the right
tools to do it.
