Chanoch-

You could use frames and client javascript to do the job.
<frameset>
<frame id=fraOne src=page_not_to_reload>
<frame id=fraTwo src=page_to_reload>
</frameset>

1. Page_not_to_reload make a javascript call to submit the hidden form on 
page_to_reload using window.parent.FORM_NAME.submit().

2. Page_to_reload is not visible and contains a form with the data to submit

and a place to store the information. This form should call itself
using <FORM action=page_to_reload method=post>.

3. Page_to_reload also contains serlvet to be execute and client side script

to populate the Page_not_to_reload  data field.

when this page is submit, the servlet executes, passing the data to client 
script, then the client side script eecutes pass the data to the data field 
on Page_not_to_reload...
