Run sql query on onmouseover and display results
APS .NET / AJAX
I want to run a sql query when the user does mouseover to few links on my ASP .NET page and display the results on a popup or tool tip window.
This query will hit sql and show special details of that particular item.
Do not want to pre-load information because the query is pretty long and would slow my page load very much.
Thanks,

While this doesn't address this specific question 100%, it can be of help regarding how to retrieve MySQL results with AJAX. The external page in the example uses PHP, but I don't think there's any reason why ASP or other languages would not work. The missing part is putting the results in a tooltip, which I personally don't know how to do.

Even though the answers where not quite what I was looking for they both help me to realize the solution.
I created an accordion ajax control to display the list of item, however, the ajax onmouse over function (which should show run a sql statment) didn't work because it kept calling a button to execute sql and causing postback. since it was in onmouseover the page didnt' stop flicking.
I used ajax to show the initial list and a basic javascript function to open a different page onmouseover. The new page executes the SQL and displays the results.
Thank you both.
