On (gs) I have access to SSH and can install things via command line but it is ob...
I have a form with input fields and submit button. Each input's blur event is observed (using prototype) and a new Ajax.Request is fired for server side asynchronous validation.

I would like to call a form as pop-up window (a form with some input fields and a submit button) and then read the user selected results from the session.
