To my knowledge, I don't think you can do that unless you set a timer and request for the listbox to be updated every few seconds which would be impractical - too much traffic. I would put a refresh button next to the list box. Before the user selects a value, he/she may click on the refresh button to verify that the list is up to date. Within the code for the list box, insert an onchange=refresh() and insert the following code to the top of code together with all the other functions.

<script type="text/javascript">
function refresh()
{
location.reload()
}
</script>
