Since the iFrame tag was recently depricated.. has there been a newly introduced equivalent?

I liked the function of the iFram.. the fact that it displayed data without having to refresh the page.

Is there a way of using the object tag and Javascript to emulate the iFrame?

I had thought that a scrollable content DIV would be the best way forward.. however the whole page would need to be refreshed in order to load in new data.

I'm creating a simple page, I already have the layout sorted (3 column, centered content), however I would like a method of showing data without refreshing the whole page.

Anyone got any pointers?
 
Refreshing the whole page is a total non-issue :)

Indeed.. but it something I would like to achieve..
It was possible with an iFrame.. surely it still is now!? :)

Edit -> I've looked further into the Object side of things.. and aparently it will not work with IE6/7 atm.
Looks like I'm gonna have to use an iFrame..
