Limit Web Service Results to one first letter for alphabetic organizing

    I have a site that draws its listings from a 3rd party web service and get all of the results at once in one long list. I want to limit the yield of info to all the items that start with a number or punctuation, a, b, c, d, e, etc per page. A whole page for listings starting with "A" and so, on. How do I do that? I can show you the link, but I don't want to seem like I am shamelessly advertising in the forum.

    The documentation for this web service is here: http://tnwebservices-test.ticketnetwork.com/tnwebservice/v3.1/tnwebservicestringinputs.asmx
    But the documentation makes little sense to me since I hardly code JavaScript to this degree and everything seems out of context.

    To make matters worse, the site I am working on is in ASPX with a masterpagefile. I usually use PHP, so my familiarity is once again limited.

    If you need more info, I am glad to share.
