The only GUI interaction for servlets is through web pages so the button
would have to belong to a form or an applet.
If you decide to use a form you could download all the data into the user's
browser, store the data in hidden form fields and then use Java script to
browse through one record at a time. The setup with an applet would be
similar except that you might want to store the data in the params of the
applet rather than hidden form fields.
The above is a simple alternative which minimizes the calls to the server
and the database.
Hope this helps.
