request script without browser navigation

Mike Biang

Is there a way to request a server script through javascript without
having the browser navigate to another page? Similar to the effects
of calling the server.execute method in ASP. Is anyone familiar with
a method to accomplish this?

Depends on what exactly you are doing and in what environment.
ActiveX, COM, or even a simple "script src=" could work.

Elaborate on what you need - is this an intranet application where you
know the browsers being used, OS, etc? Is the script pure javascript, or
is it VBScript, java, or something else that needs parsed/executed by
the server? Would having the script execute in a "hidden" new window or
iframe be sufficient or does it need to execute on the current page for
some reason (you can open a new 1px by 1px window that won't navigate
the user away from the current page)?

More info is needed.
