client side way

hey all,

i have an asp.net page that has a drop-down list databound to a table. i
like the auto postback feature in that as soon as a user selects an item in
the dropdownlist it takes that value and places it in a summary textbox.

however, i don't like the fact that it has to make trip to the server to do
this (the page flickers and the experience is interrupted).

is there a way to do all this on the client-side with like javascript?

thanks,
rodchar
