Actually this is mainly a client-side problem, on server side you have
total 
freedom to serve any protocol ;)

Often this kind of problem is solved by having twho frames and data is
aquired 
by reloading the "data-page" which then manipulates the
"presentation-page" 
using javascript, possibly in its onLoad method.
