This often works well (if your users do not put illegal characters into the form data). With the newer versions of IE and Mozilla, you can use the XMLHttpRequest control to send data, xml or otherwise, to a server without leaving the page. You can find cross-platform code to do this that will work with both browsers, but of course it will not work with older browsers.
