I'm not sure i'm getting you, if not, please ignore, but you can use js to
check if an item exists in the database on the server via le hot mode du
jour, AJAX (tm)(c)(r). What your customers want ("select by typing") sounds
a lot like what kids today are calling an AJAX autocompleter... of which the
best known example is Google Suggest:
http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en
That one will let you type in any string, even if no matches were found, but
it wouldn't be that hard to turn it into a dropdown in stead of a text
field...
