I started looking at XML as a way to handle this, both IE and Moz 6 support calling external xml files, but then you have to parse the result and do extra work on the client side.
You could also use the XMLHTTP control in IE, there's a similar thing in Mozilla. Allows you to make synchronous or asynchronous http requests to the server. Write a webware servlet that converts simple python objects into a string that can be eval'ed on the client so that it turns into a javascript object, and you're sorted.
Much less kludgy than the hidden iframe hack, but IE/Moz only.
