Text Box Loose Focus and DB Update

[DeadFly]

Is it possible, to say have a bunch of text boxes, and when you start typing in one of them, and then loose focus, that it will automatically update a particular database and record. I'm assuming that it would be something including JavaScript calling the PHP functions, but I'm not totally sure.

I haven't started coding yet, but I was just curious if it is something which is possible, before I search for other means to an end.

If it is possible, how is the best way to integrate PHP and JS ?

Umm, it's possible, but not that reliable. You'd have to submit the form every time the field loses focus.

Keep in mind PHP is server-side, and JavaScript is client-side.

Yeah, I knew PHP was server-side, but I was hoping there might be something easier to do.

I guess using an array of textboxes is the easiest way, unless you can think of anything easier ?
