I'm think it's a good idea to cut the result of the response in many
responses.
But generate html files is difficult to manage.
I prefer to add an attribut to my request to indicate that I want 100 rows
and the first to display is 200th.
First
I want 100 rows of the table xxx
http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100
return rows : 1-100
Next link : http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=101
Next
I want 100 rows of the table xxx, and the first is 101
http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=101
return rows : 101-200
Next link : http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=201
Prev link : http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=1
Next
I want 100 rows of the table xxx, and the first is 201
http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=201
return rows : 201-300
Next link : http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=301
Prev link : http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100&start=101
and so long...
If the request is very long, you can buffer the result in your servlet.
This approach can display only 50 rows for one client and 100 rows for
another client

http://www.monserveur.com/servlets/servletTable?n=100
P.S. If my english is not very good, please excuse me, I'm french :-)
