At first glance you can do this with javascript using the onchange event for
an input field. This can fire off a small child window, set it to the
background (to hide the window). This will execute the query and set a
number of form values within the document. The <body> tag will have an
initialise js function that returns the form values to the parent window and
then closes the window returning focus to the parent window.
If anybody has any other suggestions please tell me.
