Ryan, try using AJAX/XMLHttpRequest.
AJAX uses javascript which allows you to send data back to the web server and receive resulting data (all as text) without postback of the page.

Obviously you need to have the user authenticated/logged on the website, therefore you can have the web page itself handle all the database connection required without you needing to send username and password or connecting to a database from the client side.

There are several javascript libraries such as Sarissa[^] which will make your life easier working with AJAX.
I do not know of any ASP-specific AJAX library, but there are plenty .Net AJAX libraries out there.

If you need examples or more information, check the AJAX[^] section of CodeProject.
Hope that helps, good luck Wink | ;)
