Greetings
I have some concerns about the Scroller plugin. As I see it there are a couple of issues:
1) The plugin doesn't appear to load records in advance of your current position. i.e. if you are scrolling, you need to scroll until there are no more records, then the page loads with the new records. It would be nice if scroller could load the records in the background whilst you are scrolling, so that when you get there the records are already available and you do not need to wait for new records to be loaded.
2) When the plugin loads records, new records are displayed from the top, instead of after the last displayed record. As a user, it takes a while to realize that the newly loaded records start from the top again - or very often, actually above the visible area. The effect is that the user loses track of where they are in the results. Is there a way for the records to be loaded from the point of the last displayed record?
3) The constraint that all row needs to be the same size, is quite hefty one. We'd ideally like to use the fnOpen function to display additional information about a particular row, but alas this changes the row size, and throws the Scroller plugin out of whack.
Is there any hope of solving any of the above problems?
Much appreciate
Jamie
