I am not an AJAX expert, but...
I think the only real choice you have is to use Project Wonder and the
AJAX tools contained that it has.
http://projectwonder.blogspot.com/ is good reading to learn a bunch
about Wonder
http://webobjects.mdimension.com/wonder/ is where the actual downloads
are.
http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WONDER/Tutorials has a
bunch of tutorials including how to install.
Basically, you'd surround the fields you want to automatically save to
the DB with an AjaxObserveField component, then each time a field is
changed, the action would submit those values and save them to the
database.
This will make the save relatively transparent to the user.
This will completely mess with any type of validation you may have,
including required attributes and relationships, etc.

Hello Group,
Thought many people already have the below described feature
integrated to their apps and whereby I would like to know best
practices and ways to achieve the below requirement:
We have a fancy need where we need to automatically save some part
of data in a form - data entered by user in text area - to database.
This save operation should not obstruct user from continuing feeding
data to form. Basically save operation should happen seamlessly,
some people call it as asynchronously.
This is something I see when using Google Docs.
Thanks in advance.
Thank You,
Shravan
