Displaying the search result

Hey,< xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

I’m using the MSN search API and my question is; what is the easiest/fastest way to display the results on web browser after some processing

 

Thanks,

Displaying the search result

  • SAP_TECHIE

    Your suggestion is probably the easiest way to implement the display of results. The sample code in the MSN Search SDK uses 2 loops : one loops through the response, and then another loops through the results in each response.
    What is the fastest way to get the results rendered for display if I also need to page the results I'm worried about the double loops efficiency. As well, there has been conflicting advices regarding which one of DataGrids, Repeater, and Datalist are the fastest.

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Well, all of the results are returned from the MSN Search webservice as strings so you could put a placeholder control on your webpage and then dynamically add hyperlink and label controls for each search result that is returned. Does this help you
