Abstract
A method and system for presenting a dataset with context-sensitive pagination are described. The dataset is sorted and divided into subsets according to a first attribute, and the subsets are presented via a user interface, which contains a navigation control relating to the first attribute. When the dataset is sorted and divided according to a second attribute, the navigation control dynamically updates to relate to the second attribute. This allows a user to navigate pages of data in a manner consistent with chosen sorting criteria.
