Greg, You're right that this will require some javascript, but you shouldn't have to write much on your own. There's a couple of examples at: <a href="http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2006/07/31/django-tips-simple- ajax-example-part-1">The B-List: Django tips: A simple AJAX example, part 1</a> <a href="http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2006/08/05/django-tips-simple- ajax-example-part-2">The B-List: Django tips: A simple AJAX example, part 2</a> The basics of how it would work, is use the Javascript to make a call to a view that outputs it however you'd like - XML, JSON or even straight "option" fields - then have it replace the innerHTML attribute on the DOM object in question. Again, depending on the ajax toolkit you choose, you shouldn't have much javascript to write, and the python side of the code should be fairly self-explanatory. -- Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
