Eliminate postback effect?

[D. Shane Fowlkes]

Here is a form I'm building that will let people register and eventually pay
for a certain conference.
http://www.itsva.org/calendar/confer...6/regform.aspx

I'm using the AutoPostBack attribute of the DDLs to call subs and to
calculate the Grand Total. I don't suppose I can have the DDLs update
labels (all "totals" are asp:label's) like I'm doing know when they're
changed WITHOUT posting back to the page each and every time..and WITHOUT
writing javascript huh? I'm certainly no js expert and have left it behind
me since using .NET. This is the first time where I think I might need it
in 2 yrs thanks to asp.net and it's form validations.

Is there any way to accomplish what I'm doing with this form w/o resorting
to js AND not having the page post to itself each and every time?

Using ASP.NET 1.1 (VB)

Thanks again!

the upcoming trend is to use AJAX in web pages, and this will require more
javascript knowledge,

Well Javascript is integral to this type of stuff. You should really learn
JS if you want to become a decent ASP.NET developer.

Check Dart's live control but you'll still need to know javascript.

Thanks all. I'll try to educate myself better with JS. But this doesn't
help me at the moment.

So basically with my current approach, I need to have the page post back to
calculate those totals?
