Why not just allow scrolling instead of paging? Scrolling components can scroll 
through thousands of items quickly.

Suppose there are 100 items and you can only see 10 at a time. So first you see 
0-9. When you click the icon you see 10-19. When you click it again you'd see 
20-29. So you'd need another icon ("previous page" instead of "next page") to 
go back to 10-19 and then 0-9.

Subject: [flexcoders] Question about a flex component


Hi,

I am new to Flex.  I am looking for help on designing a custom component that 
will
hold a lot of items.  When the items exceed the number that are visible in the 
ui
of this horizontal component on the webpage an icon appears, which if you click
will show a list of the other components you can click again and restore the ui 
with
that item.  Hope you understand what I am talking about.  If not please post 
for clarification.

Thanks in advance,

Veena
