Marcus - Definitely easiest way is to handle that in JavaScript. Somewhere in your perl you will embed a few useful JavaScript functions to be passed down on the completed page. But you cannot point the JavaScript to the perl event; it just doesn't work that way. You can however use JavaScript to edit the page after it is already loaded & rendered. So from here your questions are really JavaScript questions, but here are a couple of pointers: you will need to make use of the "onChange" event for your popump list, as you suspected, but point it to a JavaScript function that uses (the magic beans...) HTML DOM (via getElementby functions) and then actually editing element contents with the innerHTML attribute.
