You can push a page from the server to the client by using a "Content-type:
multipart/x-mixed-replace" response, but although (recent versions of)
Netscape support this, IE does not. I have successfully used this in a CGI
environment, but haven't had the need to try it in a servlet. I ended up
using the JavaScript-driven replace due to compatibility issues.
