This can be done like this:
Your Page (ID field's onchange event) --submit--> jsp for data --submit-->
Your Page (again)
Your page should be a JSP, which do nothing on a GET request. The page
contains your HTML form, where the ID input field's onchange event will call
JavaScript to submit your form to the JSP page. Make a way so that JSP page
can redirect back to your page (e.g. pass URL along with ID), and in your
page when a POST request is received, retrieve posted data and fill them
into the form (via JavaScript).
