Limit of data in client side pagination

wondris009

Hi,

I have a table where i am using client side pagination. The table contains huge!! amount of data. I am rendering the table using jquery using $("#scrollableTable").dataTable(); the rendering leads to an error:

"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."

I am using jquery-1.5.min.js version.

Is there limit of amount of data which i can use to render the table?

If your data set is truly that huge, it's likely that you're hitting a browser limitation. Browsers themselves have a mechanism for seeing if a script is responding. You are simply timing out because your data set is too large. The script itself has no way of getting around this other than being faster.

Huge data sets are what Server-Side Processing is for. ;-)
