"I don't want to resubmit the form" You've pretty much killed it, imo. Not many browser can handle dynamically redrawing the form that's currently being displayed. You're best bet is to automatically resubmit the form and redraw the form based on that input. Or write a client side app that will do this data collection for you - you'll have much more control over the interface behaviour.
