I'll try that.

Really? The use case might not be common but it seems like it should
be easy to design the code so it's supportable. I assume after the
user types something in you'll have that in a variable then execute
the Ajax stuff. Wouldn't it be simple to just short circuit the ajax
call and return the value? Just make it configurable with another
option called "ajax=true" (default mode) .. I'd use that by just
passing in "ajax=false".
