I guess this is what i don't really understand:  so it seems like every time
i enter a character into the search feild it goes and calls my
autocomplete_Page.asp.  so that autocomplete_page.asp should take the value
entered into the  search field and run the query against the database and
return the xml of the results.  right?

if so then, how is the value of the search field passed to the
autocomplete_Page.asp?  i tried assuming it was a form variable and that it
was a url variable (Request.querystring and request.Form).  neither one
seems to be working.  it seems like what is happening is that on the first
keypress - the script is called and it is not seeing a passed value for the
search field so the query is returning all records in the table.

if i could figure out how the search field is supposed to be passed to the
autocomplete_Page.asp i think i might be in good shape but i cant seem to
figure that out.  the documentation doesn't really say.

again - any help woudl be appreciated.
