form. It can have input[type="hidden"] descendants where you can store your
data, and it can also have nested elements as descendants. Might not be
pretty, but works smoothly as long as nobody submits the form without a
submit button.

You could also use a `meta' element.

Note that these are not general recommendations for a solution. I am merely
pointing out the options you have within the given constraints.
