Hi,

What you are trying to achieve will require you to venture out into
deeper web-development waters and learn about JavaScript, which is not
related to Django at all. You will need to use Django in conjunction
with JavaScript in your templates to get what you want to achieve.

Please take a look at http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/233/ and
also 
http://lethain.com/entry/2007/dec/01/using-jquery-django-autocomplete-fields/

I would also recommend going through the short JavaScript tutorial at
http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp followed by a dose of Ajax at
http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/default.asp

Really don't want to overwhelm you, but to follow the first two links
above, you will also need to learn about JQuery.  (the 2nd link
introduces JQuery cursorily).

Hope this helps, and best of luck with your efforts.
