Is your back-end server capable of sending just the additional data each 
time rather than the whole data set again? If so, then you can do 
something like what I did for this application:

http://picker.mit.edu/

Choose a particular department, say, "4 Architecture", and click "Browse 
Courses." That loads just the architecture courses. But then from the 
drop-down at the upper left corner you can add more courses from other 
departments. The code is in

http://picker.mit.edu/browse.js

Look at the 2 functions
onAddMoreSelectChange
loadURLs
The code would be simpler if you just need to load one URL.
