Without using ajax? An iframe. Is it recommended? No. Why can't you use ajax techniques?

you can set a target="" for your form - so you could submit your form to a new tab (target="_blank") or to a small, hidden iframe (target="nameofmyiframe")

Use any element that relies on external resources.

If file uploading is required

Change the target attribute of the form to the name of some hidden iframe.

If file uploading isn't required

Use any element that pulls its content from an external resource

<img src="server.php?name=JohnDoe" />
<link href="server.php?name=JohnDoe" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="server.php?name=JohnDoe"></script>
...

But why can't you use AJAX? Note that it's now possible to upload files with AJAX as well.
