I need to show a list of items (more than one page) from XML. Info will be the description and price. What is the appropriate way to do?  
Is it possible that I create a scrollable text box and have two columns inside the text box?  
My current version is looping thru the nodes of the XML and for each child I create two movie clip, one for item description and one for price. But then I have to do a lot checking like the number of entries per page, prev and next buttons etc. I am just wondering if there is any easy way to do it. Please advise.
