1. A browser-control script for controlling how refreshed data is rendered during a network data-session comprising:

  • a function for establishing a second data-channel between a client and a data source;

    a data-communication function for transacting data over the second data-channel;

    a function for enabling selective data-rendering by the browser-control script;

    a selection function for selecting data elements to be refreshed; and

    a function for predicting a new scroll position in a browser window;

    wherein once invoked, the browser-control script provides an automated control-routine for managing a data-refresh operation such that data re-rendering within the browser application only occurs when there are updated data elements ready for display, and wherein display does not move the position of elements in the previous display.
