Hi,

I have been researching into ways of increasing speed of display of
information and was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this.

Most people on this iultradev site have a website that is connected to a
database and displays data drawn from a database.  I have a site that
displays a substantial amount of information for each record, but each time
a user visits the page, all the information has to be loaded in again, even
though  most of the information has not changed (however, some information
may have changed)  Is there a way to store the recordset details client
side(or through a  session?) and then when a user requests the same page
again, the client side(session) recordset can be compared to the server 
side
one and only records where information has changed is loaded in?  I think
there are various ways of doing it, whether it bewith Session variables, or
utilising some of the benefits of XML.  I have started looking at XML and
believe it would be possible to store all the data client side, perform
searches, filters etc client side, which would free up a hell of a lot of
server resource as the client's  machine would be doing all the 
processing.I
am  a LONG  way away from actually being able to do this, and think that
there are too many compatibility issues with xml to jump into it and start
using it.  Does anyone have any ideas, or has come across a similar 
problem?

Would love to hear your thoughts.
