merrill is right.
loading a complete page per request is pretty much how web pages work inherently.
you can think about frames (which execute one request per frame as well, but give you control about the reload), you can also think about caching, maybe also about some asynchronous ajax technology (buzzword alarm!).
i'm using tiles with frames, the benefit is rather low compared with a no frame solution. and frames are really old school.
i'd suggest that you dont use frames. should you run into performance problems later, you can add things like caches then.
