Mike, I've done exactly this. Mine returns a serializable class with a flag indicating there are more rows (if I request the first 20, I select "top 21" from the db - then I know there are more) and only the 20 items you requested. The next call sends in a start value (20) and gets the next 20, including the flag indicating if there are more, and they are just appended to the table. Seemed the most efficient in terms of data transfer.
Dino From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Murdock Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2012 10:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MonoTouch] Load more Table Results I am loading a table and want to limit the number of records shown. I would like to show only 10 records and then at the bottom of the UItableview in the footer section add a button that says "Load More results" Should I load the whole record set/ list that may be large and then have the button in the UITableView change the "rowsinsection" count. I also could limit the web service call to the number of records I want to return initially. And then clicking the button again increase the number of records requested and call the web service again to load more. Reason I need to do this is the "record set/generic list" I am going to bring back could potentially be quite large. Any suggestions would be great.
