[OpenLayers-Users] Request data from static source

Hello all,

I was trying to solve my problem by posting on dev list, maybe I´m stupid
but I still don´t find solution.
Let me generalize it:

1) I´m not skilled in OpenLayers and the only server-side language I can use
is PHP, so I want my application to be as much as possible browser-side.

2) Is there any possibility to re-load/request data from static source
(KML/GML/XML.. or some other format) with no server-side action?
I want to have static source (file) with many (thousand) vectors data
(images will be wonderful too). And I want browser to view just the visible
vectors and when I browse map the browser (client-side) will request
additional visible vector features and draw it to map.
Becaouse when I load the whole file bigger which is bigger than  500kb,
browser is getting very slow.

I dont need to have my data stored in some database/server, I can generate
them just once for a long time and I´m finding installing some server-side
services too hard to do for me.

Is somethink like that possible, or will it be? I think that for
less-skilled user like me, it would be great.

3) If it is possible, can someone of you post an example how to do it, this
would be really great, becaouse I´m afraid, that I won´t understand it? Or
at least description how to do it?

My previous thread is there (the same question, but not so general):
