I have not had to do this myself, so have no code snippet to share.  It does
seem like a commonly-discussed thing, but in a quick Google search I didn't
find anything that matched exactly.  This page:

http://remysharp.com/2007/01/20/auto-populating-select-boxes-using-jquery-ajax/

discusses doing exactly what you want with jQuery and Ajax...and PHP.  So
not quite what you are looking for.  But this page:

http://www.packtpub.com/article/enhancing-the-user-interface-with-ajax

discusses adding jQuery to a Django app and doing other cool stuff with it.
So probably you can glean bits of information from both and put it together
to do what you are looking for.  I do believe you need to learn a little
Javascript/Ajax to do this.
