And didn’t figure out yet what was the problem, you may want to check your spring version. This error happens in 2.0.2 but it seems it was fixed since 2.0.5.

A nice feature on search engines would be a live scroll, so right before you get to the end of the current page the next page with results is loaded automatically and you won’t have to click next, this can be done using ajax, flex, flash…
I will tell you how it can be done with adobe flex sdk.
First you need a mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to map the search service to. For the service I created a simple php page that returns some random list of data and mapped my HTTPService to it.
I create list of type ArrayCollection to hold the search results, and a DataGrid component with the list binded as dataProvider.
When the application starts the HTTPService send a first request for data and when getting the result will parse it and add the data to the ArrayCollection which is binded to the DataGrid, so the results will show up in the DataGrid
For now our application only loads the first page of results so we need to load the next page each time the user gets to the end of the results, so we add an event listener for the DataGrid scroll event. On this listener we check if the user scrolled down using the ScrollEvent direction and delta properties, if so we check if the user is close to the end (there are 3 more results to show) then we send a new request to the search service for next page o data.
Here you can checkout the example. (right-click on the flash to view the source code).
One problem that I was not able to solve was that when loading the first page with data the maxVerticalScrollPosition of the DataGrid was not updated, I was using this in the status label from the bottom to show the index of data show in the DataGrid; maxVerticalScrollPosition was only updated when making the first scroll. For the status label I used a hack that you can check in the code.
