Lately I was building an backend (admin-side) application in Flex. Most of the data was presented in data grids.
However, when working with services (PHP in my case) it is risky to load all data to the DataGrid. It may lead to an application crash, ie. when we work on 1000′s of items.
Therefore I decided to create the component that handles pagination itself – it is similar to ExtJS’ data grid (however much simpler :) ).
