You need to add two things:
1) you need to add frequency otherwise it will only update when you leave
the field not wile you type within it, Try setting the frequency to 1 sec
or 0.5 sec
2) you need to add the with_ attribute with something like this
with_="{myVariable:document.getElementById('field_id').value}" that will
stuff the variable "myVariable" in the the post with the value of the field
Now for my question what does h.spinner do, I can't find any documentation
on that one
