What I meant is that the so-called 'additional' information cannot be
additional. If it is essential information then it has to go in the current
page even if someone else says that is not acceptable. If it isn't, the site
will be inaccessible or unusable to some users.

There are all kinds of ways this 'additional' information can be hidden from
users of 'conventional' browsers until they click a link to display it, but
it has to be in the same page. This means it will always be visible to
people with user agents that cannot hide it, so it must be presented to them
in a manner that is comprehensible.

If there is so much information that it is not possible to present it all at
once in a comprehensible manner then perhaps you need to rethink the design
of that part of the site.

I'm not saying there's an easy solution or any solution at all, and it may
actually be that you genuinely can't make this functionality accessible to
certain user agents. Much as we strive to avoid it this does happen, and we
should explore all the options on a case by case basis before reaching this
conclusion.

I thought that's what my question was?
