A while back, the company I work for tasked me with coming up with a
better way to move through a listing of forms on our Intranet. The
way it was done before involved two identical files being maintained
simultaneously, one sorted by the form ID (AA0001) and the other by
name. The list of forms
json is one approach. XML is another. CSV works, too. The format of the
file should be what works best for the people that need to maintain it.
Then, you need to find a good way of getting that data into the browser and
in a format that is easy to work with.
How often does this file change?
Would it not be better to provide a server side script such as php or
asp to allow a paged, sorted, ajax call. Even if you put all this data
in an access database or xml file the server side script can parse and
return a small chuck of data reasonably fast.
At 1800 records I'd opt for a database
