The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Ya, the reason I am paging is because there could be millions of records
in the result. But I do see your point.

Don't see how. That relies on there being an active cursor, the issue is
whether the cursor includes "new" rows as you scroll through it. In the
case of the web (typically) you've got a new connection on each request,
so you have no open cursor, it's re-opened each time.
I'd look at this a different way... why are you paging? More and more
we're moving away from paging result sets for users. They asked for it
they get it... or we tell them it's too big, narrow the list. If you
load a table with 1000 rows they'll find what they're looking for, or
rework their request. Add in client-side sorting and filtering of the
table and they get so much functionality for free that the paging just
isn't worth it*
