Well, a weird way of doing it is to have the page
use the javascript include method to include a
javascript file such as:

<script language="JavaScript"
src="http://www.nyphp.org/somephpscript.php?content=blah
"></script>
but instead of returning a php page, it rather
creates a javascript page which contains 
things like document.write("<br>some text from a
database");   then all you have to do is tell your
user to
include the javascript bits wherever needed and
walla...it should work across most browsers and is
great method of getting
data. HTMLGear.com uses it extensively if you want
like Wired.com headlines or guest books or
whatever.
